Ok, 33 views and no answers, maybe my first post was less of a question than an exclamation. I created a cider by adding yeast, sugar and apple juice. after a day and a half, I noticed no activity at all. I then took a closer look at the apple juice container which indicated as ingredients, apple juice and Potassium Sorbate. I have noticed in other posts that Potassium Sorbate is used to stop fermentation?
Ok, so about 24hrs has passed and surprisingly, there's a very small amount of activity.
So, I guess my question is, is there a possibility that my cider will surmount the amount of Potassium Sorbate included so that it will continue to properly ferment? I have no experience with these 'preservatives'.
