Got a 6 gal Batch of Lemon Cider going this morning. This is the recipe I follow(kinda) instead of another yeast slurry, I just use Lalvin EC-1118 never had any real issues getting it to ferment as the recipe suggests. This stuff has become a staple around my house and on the Farm. Its delicious, easy to make and cheep. Probably 15-20 dollars for a 6 gal batch. (I scale up the original recipe)

Re: Lemon Cider
I typically have 3 or 4 batches of something going at any given time, and about that much ready to drink. Right now I have a 5 gals of blackberry wine aging in bottles. 6 gal of strawberry wine bulk aging in a carboy, A strawberry Ale that is ready to be bottled, 5 gals of Apple Cider, 5 gals of Cranberry-apple cider that both should be ready to bottle in about a month.
Right now, bottled and ready to drink, I have an Orange Hefeweizen, Apple Cider, Lemon Cider, Wheat Pale Ale, Nut Brown Ale and a Blackberry Ale.
If you want to get started on something easy, Cider is quickest and easiest.
