S. Martinelli & Company was founded by Stephen Martinelli in 1868. The company is located, as it has always been, for the last 150 years in Watsonville, California. The first cider made by Stephen was a 7.5% alcohol by volume sparkling cider. This chat is with Stephen John Martinelli, the great grandson of the Founder and the current CEO and General Manager of this family owned business. John’s first job as a teen was to clean the 125 gallon redwood fermenting tanks that were used at Martinelli’s to ferment apples juice to cider. You can still see the slats from the old tank today at the Company Store, where they flank the tasting bar. In this chat, we discuss Martinelli’s new product “1868” which came out in August of 2018 to commemorate the 150th year. 1868 is a 5.7% cider that Martinelli is currently contracting with the Gordon Biersch brewing company to ferment. The bulk of the apples are sourced from the Pacific Northwest. 1868 has the signature Martinelli juice profile, with a Newtown Pippin apple presence. It is sold in 12 ounce bottles in 12-packs. Costcos in California and the two Safeway stores in Santa Cruz are the only location currently selling this product. The 1868 is selling fast, as Martinelli loyalist buy sometimes up to 2-4 12-packs at a time. Listen to and see the wordplayed by Hip Hop Artist Andy Mineo called: Martinelli's Contact info for S.

Killahora Orchards of County Cork is located on the southern tip of the Emerald Isle a.k.a. Ireland and was once the center of the world butter market.  Historically it is also known as the “rebel city”. Today it is a thriving city with Michelin star restaurants and makers like Barry Walsh and Dave Watson of Killahora Orchards in Glounthaune. Killahora Orchards began to be replanted in 2011. Replanted because Killahora Orchards today, it was found, was also an orchard dating back as far as 1838. This was discovered on Ireland’s OS (Ordinance Survey) Maps. As such there are wilding apple trees on the fence line linked to the Malus sylvestris (this apple tree usually has thorns). Barn on the hill at Killahora Orchards In 2016 Killahora entered the commercial market as Johnny Fall Down cider, but as the brand evolves they are now making Johnny Fall Down a brand of cider under the Killahora Orchards label. There are 130 varieties of apples and 30 different pears. Dave Watson planted the orchard. His father Tim Watson tends it. Barry Walsh is Dave’s cousin. Barry is crowned the Booze Geek, while Dave is considered the Tree Geek.   Killahora Orchards Products The Wild Apple Bouché won the Supreme International Championship for International Ciders at the Royal Bath and West cider competition in June 2018. The Rare Apple Ice Wine which was made with Bitter Sweet and Bitter Sharp apples really set this Irish version of an ice cider apart.  Rare Apple Ice Wine made with bitter sweet and bitter sharp apples[/caption] Pom'O is and Apple Port or what the French would call Pommeau.

Lees: When should we love them and when should we leave them? And what the heck is “lees” anyways? The main chat in this episode begins around 10 minutes in and features Curt Sherrer presenting his workshop titled “All Lees Are Not Gross”. This was recorded at the 24th Annual Franklin County CiderDays in November of 2018. Why rack off the lees? Curt proposes that there are more advantages for aging the cider on the lees then removing the lees. Sur Lie is leaving the lees in the vessel that you are conditioning the cider in is called: What to expect from barrel aging and leaving the cider on the lees is the smell of H2S which smells like rotten eggs. Curt recommends: Using your nose and taste buds to keep track of what is going on when leaving the aging cider on the lees. Taste every part of the fermentation Instead of automatically dumping your lees our of the bottle - save your lees add to your next cider cook with the lees make bread with lees The process for either barrel or carboy: After the rigours fermentation, stir lees for usually the next 6 weeks - sometimes 3 times per week. This technique is called Bâtonnage. Use your nose and taste buds to decider upon the schedule best suited for your cider. Perhaps you will stir more often or not. Lees can rest upon the bottom of your vessel for up to year for further. This presentation will “lees” you with lots of food for thought and decisions to make for you own cider. Not a cider maker? - then seek out maker who do produce cider sur lie and see if you like this more wine like production. I do and as such post this taping I began my own oak barrel sur lie cider.

Sex(ism) in the cidery was a panel discussion moderated by, Franklin County CiderDays committee chair April Woodard on November 3, 2018. The goal was to take the larger context from the MeToo Movement to the cidery community. The aim is to create an egalitarian, inclusive cider community and beyond. These industry leaders shared personal stories and provided actionable steps to thwart sexism.

Matt Oskamp and Amelia Campbell started Apple Falls Cider Company in 2017. The cider house is situated alongside the farm store at Campbell Orchards located in Prince Edward County, Ontario. Campbell Orchards is owned by Amelia’s parents Colin and Dianne Campbell. When Colin’s father died due to a plane crash, he took on the orchard that was started by his father. That was back in the late seventies when Colin was just in college. Today the orchard and farm stand is a testament of love and perseverance. There is a cider garden outdoors from the tasting room with ample seating at picnic tables. This is a family friendly scene where you can also stop and pick up a pie or meats on your way home from work. Listen to their story and the future of Apple Falls Cider Company.  1937 Orchard tractor - called Cockshutt .

In this episode author of "The New Cider Makers Handbook" Claude Jolicoeur presents an overview of his trip to Kazakhstan in August of 2017. This presentation was recorded at the 24th Annual Franklin County CiderDays on November 3, 2018. Claude had a power point of slides from this trip, but do note that his descriptions fill in the void of not being able to see the photos. We begin in the Tian Shan Mountains of Kazakhstan. Locations: Lee-Alatau National Park Almaty to Sarkand was a 5 hour drive. Claude states that one of the main reason he was there was to see the Largest Apple in the World. This tree’s diameter is over 1 meter (3 feet). This trip was design to both be a study of the areas apples and to create a documentary film Also on this trip was Andrew Lee - author Ryan Burk - head cidermaker at Angry Orchard Peter Mitchel - provides a curriculum on cider making. Take Aways from this presentation There are apple trees everywhere. Looking at Claude’s photos you can see trees in the distance as one would see bush and sage brush in the desert. Every where you saw a tree, it seemed to be an apple tree. The apples though wild, meaning that they are not be cultivated or spray, produced what looked like flawless apples Horses are also found through the area, as horseback riding is quite popular Cannabis Sativa can be found growing everywhere Coming out in 2019 is the documentary film of this trip.

Dave Carr makes cider using wild yeast and oak barrels (primarily). Raging Cider and Mead is based in San Marcos, California, which is about 15 minutes in land from Oceanside and based in San Diego County, California. Dave Carr Raging is an urban cidery with an orchard based twist, which means Dave is bringing apples from the mountain region to the east and pressing it on site at the San Marcos location. What can you expect from apples that are dry farmed? Read: no irrigation, hot weather, dry climate. Expect a very high brixs, which relates to a dense amount of sugar lending a potential for a quite high alcohol by volume with the cider made. Raging Cider in short 100% wild ferment Dave does not rack the cider off its lees. He leaves what would be called the gross lees in the barrel. Using the technique called Bâtonnage he will then work with the lees stirring it in through out the ferment and while it is conditioning and some of the barrels he leaves the cider to ferment in place on top of the lees. What to expect at the Tasting Room You will see a wall with around 24 barrels of cider It opens on Thursday through Sunday.

Kees Morsink and Margaret Van Helvoort have traveled the world as United Nations aid workers in Africa where they were fermenting everything from yogurt to mango and even doing some distilling. Cider isn’t new to these two enterprising Canadians. Kees had his first spontaneous ferment forty years ago when he put a gallon of cider in his school locker and the cider began to ferment. Now-a-days they split their time traveling to India, Nepal, and Thailand making jewelry. This lifestlye provides them the ability to manage their own time which really helps with the seasonal demands of cider making. Four years ago they began the process of starting up a commercial cider making operation at their home. The Tasting Room open in May 2018. I visited with my Canadian host Ryan Monkman of Fieldbird Cider in June of 2018. We sat down in the Kees and Margarets living room and then moved to the Tasting Room next door. From May 31st to December 31st you can visit the Tasting Room on Saturday and Sundays from 11-6pm. There is a window that allows viewing into the cidery. We tasted the full compliment of Kings Mill Ciders, which are all available via their online store.

Ironbark Ciderworks in Claremont, California opened its Tasting Room doors to the public in November of 2017. The large inviting Tasting Room has conical stainless steel tanks to one side and room for musicians to another, in the back. The front room has tables and chairs and a hot pink bar. There is also outside seating which offers a perfect place to sit and take in the dry, arid air of this southern California oasis.  Find ample parking, a brewery across the parking area and a distillery. This cidery has a definite feminine touch. The pink hues, pink chairs and as Cat says, “We like curves.” Cat considers Ironbark to be a safe space for women and everyone. On the Cider House Rules by the bar it states - No misogynist, homophobic or transphobic behavior is allowed. “We have to had to have people leave” says Cat. This Australian born, statuesque woman makes me believe that asking someone who is mean spirited to leave would be no problem. But dealing with unruly behavior is not why we are meeting - so in step with her inviting hospitality Cat offers up straight away giant flight of ciders The first cider served was called Duchess-(7.5%) made with black tea “Twinning” that they import just for this tea. They have a base cider, filter and then steep the tea. A Specially Poured Flight for this chat The Duchess - (7.2%) - made with Twinning Tea Passionista (8.4%) - light, straw, carbonated. Made with passion fruit Hoppelganger (7.5%) - An IPA “doopleganger” Sassy Simpson (8%) Black currant juice fermented with apple juice and once fermented steeped with Black Currant tea. Twilight (9%) - made with Blueberries Anais (7.2%) Volcano (7.5%) Jamaica (7.5%) Hoptropica (6.9%) Zang- made with 200 pounds of fresh ginger was out while I was there, but Cat says, "It is everyone's favorite." I gravitated towards the Twilight. How Cat got into Fermenting She is gluten intolerant allergic to yeast and sulfites And, does not like sugar in cider Ace Cider’s "The Joker" is what got her into making cider. Fermentation Practices at Ironbark Ciderworks 10 barrel Tanks No sulfites No sugar Ferment dry They use the same yeast for all the ciders The juice is from Washington State. They get a cider blend and granny smith to mix in an manage the acid level in Ironbark Cider. Once fermented they filter the cider to remove the yeast. “Duchess [made with tea] is a good breakfast cider” says Cat Contact for Ironbark Ciderworks Website: https://www.ironbarkcider.com/ Facebook page is currently the best place for up-to-date news  Address: 1420 N.

Val Steinmann and Brent Klassen moved from the city to the 42 acre farm that is now called Heartwood Farm and Cidery in 2004. In the past 14 years, they created pasture and now have a herd of 20 cows each summer. They have planted an orchard and raised pigs, chickens and have two work horses. Val inspired the family to worked towards a “regenerative farm” and in short order Brent got into orchard care with nut trees and maple trees and of course soon enough apples and cider making. Kat Scott came on board in 2017 and is also on this chat. This recording was made while I was touring Ontario cideries with Ryan Monkman of FieldBird Cider.

Niagara College has two locations in Ontario, Canada. This chat features the Niagara-on-the-Lake campus which has a fully licensed winery on site (which is what is needed to make cider in Canada). It is here that past student and now the onsite winemaker, Gavin Robertson, works with students making cider to sell at the college’s Tasting Room. The course work is very experiential in that there is a small high density cider apple orchard on the campus, all the equipment needed to make cider and a program that teaches students the ins and outs of  commercial cidermaking. The annual cider yield is around 5000 cases of wine and now cider too! In fact, per Dan who was serving that day while I was on site in the Tasting Room “Cider is what everyone is asking for when they visit [the Tasting Room]. The main brand at this campus is called: Cider 101. Additional programs offered at Niagara College culinary sciences at Niagara on the Lake College chef brewmaster program distillation program enology post grad program horticulture cannibus growing business - July 2018 Canada opened up recreational and medicinal marijuana.

Richard Liu is the Chair of the Ontario Craft Cider Association and owner of Ironwood Cider and Sunnybrook Winery. This chat was recorded while I was on tour with Ryan Monkman of Fieldbird Cider (Prince Edward County) who sponsored my cider tour of Ontario's craft cidermakers. Richard's Background Richard was born in Taiwan and his family moved to Canada when he was ten. Before buying Sunnybrook/Ironwood he worked in Asia in what he described as the corporate world. He and his wife decided to move back to Canada and start a business to provide their children with a countryside setting. Richard took over the fruit winery Sunnybrook in 2013 and began making cider under the brand Ironwood, which was also part of the original winery. The current facility at Sunnybrook/Ironwood is around 1600 square feet. During the summer of 2018 they are building a 10,000 square foot building for both the winery and cidermaking operations. Behind the tasting room is an orchard of peach trees. The plan is to replant the orchard with pears. Richard and 5 other "guys" started the Ontario Craft Cider Association in 2012. The first chairman of this association was Nick Sutcliffe of Pommies Cider Company in Caledon, Ontario.  The Association current membership is around 40 makers. It is the only craft cider association in Ontario Terminology used in this chat and info on Canada for cider drinkers OCCA - Ontario Craft Cider Association VQA - Vintner's Quality Alliance LCBO - Liquor Control Board of Ontario Drinking age begins at 19 in Canada.

Viejo is a barrel aged cider made by Joe Getz of Kurant Cider. This cider is a single varietal cider made with Winchester apples. Described on Kurants website as: "a blend of wild fermented ciders created by using some of the best apples we could source in Pennsylvania.  The ciders used to blend Viejo were aged for 6-18 months in oak before being used in the finished product.  Viejo is a still cider meaning non-carbonated.  It's meant to be served with a long pour from great heights to aerate and add effervescence." Joe in the barrel room[/caption] In this chat taste and talk Viejo and follow up with Joe on the opening of the Fishtown taproom, which much like Viejo took over a year to build out. A Porron is used by Kurant Cider for in high pours of cider/sidra A 19th century carriage house was renovated into the new Taproom, which has an upstairs (The Attic) and a main floor serving area.

Cider's Chemical Fingerprints John Edwards presented "Chemical Fingerprints of Cider" at the United States Association of Cider Makers annual conference in Baltimore Maryland (CiderCon) in February 2018. The full title of this workshop was The Complex Fingerprint Analysis of Cider and other Alcoholic Beverages by Quantitative NMR Spectroscopy. What is NMR? Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is an analytical chemistry technique used in quality control and research for determining the content and purity of a sample as well as its molecular structure. What can NMR Spectroscopy do for Cider? Interested in nutritional labels? Wonder what the cost is to do an analysis and get your own label? Have a stuck fermentation? Trying to set up a baseline for tracking terroir? Need help analyzing cider or other beverages? NMR can do all of the above, albeit not all of this is now being done with cider. However in the wine industry NMR is used to track vintages and terroir, so it is perhaps just a matter of time.

  Bâtonnage is a winemaking technique that is also used in Cidermaking. It involves raking the lees or what is seen as the heavy particulars of yeast cells that fall out of solution and down to the bottom of the barrel during primary fermentation. Bâtonnage is all about stirring the lees back into solution. Makers like Ryan Monkman of FieldBird Cider and Lee Baker of Keint-He Winery and Vineyards discuss and demo this technique in this episode #132 Go to Cider Chat YouTube Channel and view clip Ryan demonstrating the stirring in of the lees - Bâtonnage.

Cider Barrel Maintenance The craft of making an oak barrel is called “cooperage” and the person who applies this craft is called a “cooper”. The skills of this trade have been passed down through the centuries. The tree and the wood chosen to become a barrel has to meet specific criteria, such as having a tight grain and flavor profiles that lend the tannin qualities often sought in a cider barrel. From the classic wide belly barrels to oval shaped vessels, the shape of wooden barrels have changed very little over time. Quality control over the wood used and the intricacies of heat, stave bending, and maintenance of cider barrels continues to evolve. This episode 131 was recorded in Saint Catharine, Ontario during a dinner chat with Ryan Monkman of FieldBird Cider, Thierry Lemaire of Nuance Winery Supplies and Louis of Radoux, a cooperage based in Santa Rosa California and France. All three men have extensive knowledge on barrel use with wine. As the cider market continues to grow and both the consumer’s and cidermakers interest in ciders fermented or stored in oak increases, barrel maintenance is undoubtedly a hot topic and a key market for these specialist in the art of oak barrel cooperage and fermentation. As we enjoy a bottle of Ryan’s FieldBird cider over dinner the four of us discuss oak barrel selection and maintenance, which in short narrows down to the broader topic of Barrel Skills. Whereas the wine industry has been working with oak barrels for centuries, cidermakers particularly in the US and Canada, are only now gaining speed with cider post Prohibition. Key topics in this chat: Finding the right oak barrel for your cider Barrel Maintenance: Cleaning a barrel Storing a barrel - wet or dry storage - burning a sulfur disk Leaky barrels - mechanical (cooperage) or maker mismanagement?

Carlo Hein has always loved cider. That cider love and perhaps his work in renovation and sustainable energy spurred him and his friends to start a cidery. Upon noticing the fallen fruit and neglected apples trees in his area of Luxembourg. He realized, “We need to save these orchards” And so he did. Ramborn Cider Co began selling cider in 2015 and is Luxembourg's only cidery. To make cider he first called Peter Mitchell, who is renown worldwide for his classes on cidermaking. Carlo asked Peter if he would help Ramborn. Peter replied that first you must take my course and then we will discuss making cider for Ramborn. Today Peter Mitchel still consults to Ramborn Cider, which undeniably lends a good amount of UK profile to each of the ciders. What is the traditional word for cider in Luxembourg? Viez Where did the name of the cidery come from? Rambo is an apple known in France and Sweden and in Luxembourg. Like so many wonderful cider blends, Ramborn Cider Company is part Rambo apple and the town “Born”. Upon further research Carlo found that David Morrel the author of the book “First Blood” which inspired the movie Rambo was looking for a name for the main character protrayed by Slyvester Stallone in the movie.  Morrel's wife came in from the market and said why not use an apple name! The rest is history and all this goes to show you that once again the apple provides the bases for so many good stories throughout history. With Ramborn being the only cidery in the country the support is massive from both the locals and the government. Visting Ramborn The 1781 barn at Ramborn is original. The architecture is based upon the style that is classically Marie Thersea of Austria, the country that once ruled this area. There is a center square courtyard and the barn that housed a cidery and distillery has been turned into a cinema. Taking a Tour of Ramborn The tour is 1 1/2 hours long and includes a movie that you can hear a short clip of in this podcast. The movie does play in different languages. The tour brings you through the production area and the farm. Ramborn Cider can accommodate up to 140 people per time. There is also a walking tour through the time. There is no tasting room, but upon request there is a dinning area that can be reserved for group dinners.

Matt DeLong grew up making cider and what he once called “Apple Wine”. Western Michigan has what is known as the wine trail and there are lots of fruit wines, so it is no surprise that Matt first considered a career in the wine industry. Things started to change around 2009 - 2010 when he noticed a whole lot of ciders in his area of west Michigan popping up. He credits the support of his wife Valerie for helping him hone his vision and open Ridge Cider Company in 2014. The cidery is based in the town of Grant, Michigan in a building that was once used to process onions. Time Line of change for Ridge CiderCo - to Ride Cider LLC Matt teamed up with Bruce Rasch in 2014, one of the largest apple growers in the same region Matt began selling cider commercially in 2015. Not discussed in this chat is that Ridge Cider Co. sold its majority share to RC Investors, in April of 2017. RC is an investment firm owned by Dick Devos, husband of Betty Devos - the current U.S. Education Secretary in the Trump Administration. In this chat we discuss 3 Ridge Ciders - Porch Sittin - notes of vanilla and cinnamon - this is the flagship Raspberry - Hopped Now in Cans Porch Sittin Berries Hopped Matt uses an accordion press - or squeeze box that he bought used from a cider house in Maryland, back in 2014.

Little Pomona’s makers, Susanna and James Forbes have a long history with libations. James worked as a wine buyer and marketer, while Susanna who started in physics became one of the UK’s leading libation writers. Do check out her website and blog Drink Britain, it will be time well spent. Listen to this chat with Susanna and James as they tell their tale of moving out of city and into the country to begin selling Little Pomona commercially in 2015. The orchard is located in Herefordshire, in the town of Bromyard. Little Pomona Ciders There is no doubt that these ciders are stepping out! Read: not your typical UK cider. James’ background in wine is certainly influencing the profile of each cider produced. If ever there was a cider that would be worthy of buying one now to drink and 5 more to cellar, Little Pomona is the cidery to choose. Delicate, yet bold, each cider that I tasted during this chat was complex, tannic and not your typical UK cider.

Paul Vander Heide opened Vander Mill a cidery based in Spring Lake Michigan in 2008. Some might think that 3000 square feet is a good size for a start up cidery and they would be right. But as Paul reminisces in this chat, they had to expand quickly when they had to move outdoors to continue production. In 2016, a new location was open in Grand Rapids. Both locations have a Tap Room and Restaurant. Vander Mill makes both modern ciders and Heritage ciders. Go to 31:57 in the podcast to hear Paul discuss the question of what is a Heritage apple in the US. At CiderCon2018 Paul was elected as the new President of the United States Association of Cider Makers.  He is very optimistic about cider in America and speaks about embracing the diversity of makers in the US, which range from traditional, modern to a blend of both. For Vander Mill the consumers informed this maker on the styles that they make, says Paul “ It was the consumer that drove our business into a wide range of styles for Vander Mill. The cidery makes both Heritage and Modern ciders. And while the cider drinker’s palate slowly changes towards more subtle notes, Paul is not waiting on planting cider apple varieties. He credits Vander Mill’s partnership with a local grower who has put in a large block of cider apples for making the future look quite bright….or…er…full bodied and tannic. :) Find Vander Mill ciders, distributed in: Michigan Wisconsin Ohio Indiana Illinois Draft accounts throughout Michigan and Chicago with a sprinkling of draft accounts throughout the other states Contact Vander Mill Website: http://vandermill.com/ Spring Lake location Telephone: 616-842-4337 Address for Tap Room & Restaurant 14921 Cleveland Street Spring Lake Michigan, 49456 Hours: Sunday Brunch 10-2pm Wed & Thurs 2-9pm Fri 2-10pm Sat 11-10pm 2-4pm snacks, 4pm dinner starts Grand Rapids Tap Room, Restaurant & Production Telephone: 616-259-8828 Address for Tap Room & Restaurant 505 Ball Ave NE Grand Rapids, MI 49503 Hours: Sunday Brunch 9am-3pm Mon-Thurs 11am-11pm Fri-Sat 11am-12am Mentions in this chat 6-degrees of Cider - share the news on the Totally Cider Tour headed to Normandy France September 23-29, 2018 Allan Hyland maker at Door Peninsula Winery who sent a box of 3 ciders to Ria.

Kirk Billingsley has been charmed by cider ever since he was a kid. Coming home from school he fondly remembers being mentored by his dad who had a barrel of sweet cider (non fermented apple juice) outside the family’s home in the same county of Highland where he still lives today. In 2015 he opened Big Fish Cider Company after making cider non commercially for 25 years in his home. This chat was recorded at CiderCon2018. Sarah Collins Simmons who works with Kirk also joined us and offered a great perspective on the orchard care of all the trees helping Big Fish make such delicious cider. Big Fish Apples Varieties at the main apple orchard Golden Russet Northern Spy Jonagold Ashmead Kernel Dolgo crab apples In total Big Fish has around 300 trees to pick from. Most, if not all, are heritage trees that were planted over a 100 years ago on farmland that was long forgotten. On any given day they are pressing 250 gallons of cider. Cidermaking technique used at Big Fish: Slow & cold ferment With an occasional bit of back sweetening because the apples are so acid (sweet helps to balance out the acid) Use small 2000 liter and 1000 liter tanks and Oxygen barrier IBC Big Fish has a Tasting Room The room is currently 400 square feet and has 3 tables and 12 chairs This year they are expanding the Tasting Room…maybe there will be 6 tables and 24 chairs. Kirk bought the building a while back. It was built in 1920 and built with wood called Wormy Chestnut Kirk’s Cidermaking Tip: Experiment with yeast Look at areas of the world that like the style of cider that you do.

Following the burst of the housing bubble in 2008 and the subsequent worldwide financial crisis, governments began looking for ways to tighten their purse strings. Austerity (the sequester in the US) is one of the main policy options to deal with heavy public debt. Sometimes a painful process and not without controversy, austerity generates substantial cuts to many public services. According to Dr. Basu, when approached incorrectly austerity can also have deadly consequences. Drawing on case studies starting during the Great Depression up to the present day Basu has found that certain austerity measures have led to large public health problems such as HIV and malaria outbreaks, medicine shortages, increased heart attacks and even a recent outbreak of West Nile virus in California. However, it doesn’t have to be this way, according to Basu. Several countries such as Iceland and Japan have actually improved their public health situations in tough economic times. Which direction will the sequester take the US and California? Join the conversation with Dr. Sanjay Basu to find out.
