SleekPixel for cider maker

Heirloom Russet from the single orchard, a perry made with Bartletts, a barrel-aged Kingston Black. Every release has a variety, an orchard, an ABV, and a release date. SleekPixel renders the 1080x1080 card on save.

Release days and the orchard story

A cider maker's calendar is a release calendar. The autumn flagship drops in October, the rose hip cider in spring, the dry English-style in February. Each release has a variety, an orchard or blend, an ABV, a release date, and a tasting room window. Drinkers who care about cider track those releases the way wine drinkers track vintages.

The product page on the WordPress site holds the data already. The variety is the product title, the orchard is an ACF field, the ABV is on the variation, the tasting notes are in the long description, the release date is on the event post. The site is the source of truth.

SleekPixel renders the card from that source. Saving the release post produces a 1080x1080 PNG with the variety, the orchard, the ABV, and the release date, framed in the cider house's brand. The tasting room posts it the morning of release. The grid reads like a cider list across a year of releases.

Workflow

From release date to social card

1

Map release fields

Point SleekPixel at the variety, orchard, ABV, release date, and tasting room hours on the product post and location post.
2

Design one square template

Build a single 1080x1080 layout with the cidery's mark, type, and palette. A release variant and a sold-out variant share one base.
3

Publish the release

Saving the release post renders the card PNG to uploads and wires the OG image to the release URL.
4

Post on release morning

Tasting room manager downloads the card from the Gutenberg sidebar and posts to Instagram before the doors open.

Features

What SleekPixel gives you for cider maker

Variety and orchard

Apple varieties (Kingston Black, Dabinett, Yarlington Mill) and the source orchard render from the product fields, accurately every time.

ABV from the lab

The ABV field can carry the lab measurement, so the social card matches the label and the tasting room shelf talker.

Tasting room hours

Release-day tasting room hours come from the location post, so the card always shows the right times for the day customers visit.

Use cases

Who uses SleekPixel for cider makers

Single-orchard cideries

Estate cideries render a card per release with the orchard name, vintage year, and variety, the way a winery would render a vintage card.

Hopped and infused cideries

Hop-forward and botanical cideries render cards with the hop variety or botanical blend alongside the apple base.

Tasting room cideries

Cideries with a tasting room render cards that include the day's hours and the per-glass and per-bottle pricing.

The bigger picture

Why cider releases live and die on the launch graphic

Cider is at a moment where serious drinkers are paying for orchard transparency, single-variety releases, and vintage cider the same way they pay for wine. The cideries that earn the price premium are the ones whose Instagram grid reads like a wine producer's: clean, consistent, varietal-forward. The trap is that small cideries are usually a one- or two-person operation, and the cidermaker is also the orchard manager and the bottling line.

Sundays in October don't leave time for a Canva session. The fix is to treat the release graphic as something the release post produces. The variety, the orchard, the ABV, the release date all live in the post that the cidermaker filled out the night before bottling.

Saving that post renders the card. The release morning posts on time, the grid reads as one producer across a year of vintages, and the price-per-bottle that's printed on the shelf talker is the one that justifies the work in the orchard.
