Mac's Apple Pie Shine

[big a]

Just finished up my first batch today. Has anyone used apple cider that has not been pasteurized? I got some from a local orchard like that. I brought it to a boil and let it sit out over night to cool. I have a weird paranoia of making people sick from something I make. I just want to make sure that bring it to a boil i will be good.

I've had some keep as long as 4-5 months in the fridge...the problem is getting it to last that long.

Only issue with storing in the fridge, is the sentiment that settles at the bottom of the jar...but after shakikng vigorously...problem solved.
