a friend decided to ship me some apple cider (5 gallons) to allow me to try making hard cider. When I finally recieved it (I was out of town for a couple of days) it was already fermenting in the container. Another day and I think it would have exploded!!!
I popped it in my carboy and added some campden tablets (1 per gallon). 12 hours later it was bubbling away again! I was not sure what to do and threw another 3 tablets in.
Should i just let it ride with the wild yeast if it starts bubbling again?
Or, add the provided yeast with the wild?
Or chuck in bin ?
This assuming the fermenting should stop when you add campden tabs ... and that it will be bubbling again soon.
Thanks
