Spring, I have it on pretty good authority, that your a good wine maker with excellent knowledge on the subject.

I didn't really pay attention to the fact that my starter wasn't really 'starting' and tossed it in. Now that it has sat a day, it isn't doing anything...do I have to re-pitch the yeast because I didn't let it sit for 24 hours, beforehand? Thanks, Annie

Let it go, just wait. When I pitched my cider I thought I blew it because I pitched it twelve hours if that after campden. It didnt start for 36 hours, wait it out.
