The cider is Krausening... the beer is still giving the odd slow bubble. Looks like all's well.

Wrong term, perhaps... big loose foaminess at the top, hitting the blowoff.

Sorry if that came off snooty. I'm just surprised your ciders foam. I've experimented a couple times with cider with great success and I never witnessed any foaming. I used champagne yeast though.

It had a fizzy crown at the top... it was the Wyeast Sweet Mead I was using, which may have a different pattern of activity. It now just has a little foamy head, maybe 3/4" at the top of the cider... I'm getting fizz, but it's now bubbling at about 1-2 seconds per bubble. I think it's just a bit over a week in.

How long should this go for, fermentation-wise??
