I'm trying to make my first batch of cider, and on Wednesday I added 5 campden tablets (crushed) to 5 gallons of freshly pressed juice. On Thursday I added 1.5kg of sugar and on Friday I added 1 sachet of cider yeast. Not much was happening but by yesterday there was bubbling/foam appearing on the surface of the juice. However, today, it's pretty much gone.
I let some out to test the gravity, and it hasn't changed from when I pitched the yeast. Have I blown it or is it just taking a while to get started?
