Hi,
Just tried to brew my first batch of cider. Used Mangrove Jack pouch of Pear Cider.
New fermenter, all clean/sterilised, followed instructions, right temp etc.
Over 24 hours later, not so much as a bubble from the airlock. A pilsener I out on a few hours later is bubbling happily away.
I threw out the packet so don't know if it was near the expiry date but all seemed OK and temperature still within range.
So, do I chuck it and start again? Or leave it another day or so and see if it kicks off?
As a "part 2", any experiences with the Mangrove Jacks pouches? Not up to a full brew from scratch yet, but interested in any tips or thoughts on them.
Thanks,
Darren
