what yeast did you use and is it warm enough our cider bubbled for 2 weeks. Take a reading with a hydrometer see what stage its at

hi thanks for the reply the yeast is the one that came with the kit and the hydrometer reading is 1.040 . temp is 22
:pray: :pray:

Looks like your doing everything right. You could try taking the airlock off and giving it a swirl around to see if that gets the yeast going again. Looking at the hydrometer reading it hasn't finished yet :thumb:

Hi

When I did mine a few weeks ago I found that after the initial frothy start it died down but in a day or to it should start bubbling like lemonade so no need to worry :).


At 22 degrees it is a tad warm but only 2 degrees over 20 so it should'nt make a difference.

Let us know what yours tastes like Fran, tasted mine 2 weeks in and its pretty bad :/

 

[fran]

still bad at 3 weeks but has improved i think another week or 2 and all will be well

 

[Peapodmaster]

well, keep hanging in there! i've left my cider for 5 weeks now. i think i may open a bottle tomorrow. may leave it mature for longer. last week it was lovely. wonder how it'll taste now! :)

Cheers

I have still got 34 bottles of this kit that is almost 12 months old now.... i know they get better with age but :sick: it's still not good, stick with the Turbo Cider and you won't go far wrong
