I'm seeing now that volume is an issue. What kind of heat distribution would I need in a bigger pot on a stove to simmer this batch+two cups of cider for the next few hours? My crock is, oh, maybe two and a half gallons and full. |

My crock is, oh, maybe two and a half gallons and full. just keep it on low heat for awhile..I'm assuming you're putting it into the crock after to cook for a number of hours? |

Essentially, everything is going according to plan except that, on a whim, I now want to add some cider. |

Regardless, no I don't have a plastic bottle. Even if I did, the mouth of this jar is wider than your standard bottle. |

Just let me know. we appreciate that but we have plenty of mason jars..the mrs. lands at LAX in 1 hour..i've started happy hour at home by myself You don't pick up your gal at the airport after she's been gone? |
