Cider Problems

[ThisIsJAG]

So this is my first time brewing anything. So sorry if this is a stupid question. But it has been about a week since i started fermenting and within the last couple days i have seen a separation that has built up on the bottom of my jug. I was wondering if anyone knew what it could be and if i should be worried

It most likely your yeast falling out of suspension post fermentation. Totally normal. google yeast cake.

+1 To BradleyBrew.

Depending on what you used IE: Tree Top Juice vs 365 Cider you'll have more or less trub/must at the bottom as solids and yeast drop out of suspension.

So do I need to mix it up or just leave it be

DO NOT mix it up. You want to keep that stuff to a minimum in the final product.

FYI, there is a CIDER FORUM on this board: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f32/

Do you plan on bottling this batch, or do you happen to have a kegging setup?
