I was checking on my cyser today, and it's looking pretty darn clear. It's probably not newsprint-worthy yet, but I would say it looks like apple-juice you'd find at the store (considering the cider I started with was completely opaque, that's saying a lot).
It's only about a month old, so I'm not planning on bottling anytime soon, but it got me thinking: How do you know when it's time to go from bulk aging to bottle aging? Taste? Unchanging hydrometer readings? Mystical Gnosis that I, as a newbee, haven't earned yet?
