I will try to make it more comprehensible: 1 cup of Raw apple cider vinegar (the one with the mother in it) 1 cup apple cider Put in a jar and cover with a coffee filter over it. You can use a rubber band to secure it. Put this in your pantry/ cupboard for about 1 month.aste it to see if it is strong enough. If so, continue on-For the next batch, use 1/2 cup of your vinegar in a mason jar and fill the rest with apple cider. This batch will go much faster and will be done at about 2 weeks. You will no longer need to buy apple cider vinegar.
