Abstract
As commercial US hard cider production continues to increase, Washington hard cider production has experienced steady growth as well. Typical apple varieties originally cultivated in the UK and used for hard cider are grown in the eastern US. These varieties are normally bitter, owing to increased content of proanthocyanidin molecules, which are part of a larger class of compounds known as tannins. As the western states grow hard cider apple varieties and produce hard cider, traditional tannin tests are being reevaluated. This technical bulletin describes and compares traditional and newer, non-traditional methods to analyze tannins in apple juices and hard cider.
