I started a hard cider yesterday, used a dry champagne yeast, hydrated/pitched it. today i realized i didnt add nutrients.
I didnt see any action in the fermenter last night, or this morning. but after about 18 hours after i started fermentation it is now starting to do something.
What i am getting at:
Is it too late to add nutrient?
I read somewhere that adding Thiamine HCL is possible as an energizer.
Or should i just let it be?
If i do use it, should i dilute it in some cider or just spoon it into the fermenter? I am using fermax by the way.
Would it be detrimental to give it a bit of a shake after i add it?
sorry about all the questions. this is turning out to be quite the learning experience.
