    first batch apfelwein not going well

    I made a 1 Gal batch up last week. I used Apple & Eve 100 % Apple Juice made from concentrate. I pitched the yeast and no activity for two days. I was away for a week and when I came back there is still no activity that I can see. The room has been at 60-64 degrees. Can I fix this?

    first batch apfelwein

    I mixed up a 1 gallon batch of Edwort's Apfelwein yesterday. I pitched the yeast- Red Star Montrachet and a day later there is still no airlock activity. Did I do something wrong and if so how can I fix it?

    bad siphoning

    Back to Brewing

    I used to do 5 gallon extract brews years ago and liked it very much. Then I moved into smaller apartments in a city and didn't have the room. Recently I bought a bigger place and one weekend walked into a store that sold Mr. Beer kits. I bought one and my first batch wasn't bad at all. I...
