Secondary fermentation has begun on Batch #1, infused with Michigan sour cherries and using AC-4 Cider Yeast. It tastes amazing already, a touch on the sweet side, but hopefully 2nd round will dry it out a little.

We're at the point now where the tree just shits an apple to the ground every few minutes. I can sometimes hear them drop from my office window.
