First Apple stuff

3 frozen concentrate Apple Juices
- each one calls for three cans of water to make 48Oz of juice
1 cup sugar
1 packet rapid rise yeast

Mixed packet of yeast with about half a cup of warm water to activate
All three cans of frozen juice and six cans of water and 1 cup sugar brought to a boil.
Then mixed with enough ice to make 5 quarts and added yeast.

Brewed for about 8 days
Yeast worked very furiously for about three days and slowed down to almost nothing.
It was starting to settle and clear on it's own, and then I needed the water trap (boiled and ruined my other one when starting mead)
