I put up two batches of cider last weekend. One was simply unfiltered apple juice and Notty yeast. The other was half clear apple juice and half blackberry juice with Notty...all national brands bought at the grocery store, none of it had preservatives.
The unfiltered juice fermented well. The airlock bubbled for a couple of days and has more or less stopped.
The half and half batch bubbled a little on the second day but not much since. However, the side of the bucket have crud on it as if it had a nice krausen at one point. I forgot to check for fermentation until about 24 hours after I closed up the bucket. Could it have done it's thing in less than 24 hours? I've considered introducing some more yeast to make sure.
