Hey all.
So after reading several blogs ect (lots of opinions) on the net, I decided to jump in the deep end, and last night I took the plunge and started my very first batch of apple cider. It's my very first time trying to do any sort of home brewing.
The recipe I used was:
1 gallon of uv pasteurized apple cider.
1.4 cups white sugar
Lalvin EC-1118 yeast.
Sanatized and then mixed it all up in my 1 gallon glass carboy and slapped my airlock on her.
Within 20 min I noticed activity within the airlock.
I looked at it this morning. And noticed a nice ring on top and it starting to creep up the neck. I have a feeling when I return home It will probably have entered into my airlock.
Two questions.
1) This recipe was just something I kinda threw together. Any experience with a similiar recipe. And how did it turn out?
2) If i get matter in my airlock, what do I do?
Cheers.
