I started a few batches of cider using store bought unfilterd apple juice with no preservatives. I used 1g of S-04 per batch/gallon in all of them. Two batches had no sugars, and 2 more I added 200g of brown sugar. They started fermenting in 24 hours and finished bubbling in under 2 weeks. Once they stopped, I racked them to a fresh carboy and moved them to a dark closet with temperatures the 65-70F range. They have been in there for 2 weeks now, and they are not clearing (much?). Is that normal for unfiltered juice ?
I am using this juice which came in a great 1 gallon carboy that I am using to ferment in:
