First Cider Started..any tips

[brewers82]

Finally have my first batch of cider started. A basic cider using One gallon Whole Foods juice, Nottingham yeast, yeast nutrient, and brown sugar. 24 hours in and I'm getting some good action in the airlock and the jug. I have a quick question, do I need to "shake or stir" the jug at all while it's fermenting?

Thanks.

Nope. Leave it be.

Takes time. That's what I'm learning. It's more like wine than beer. Although some claim success in a week or two I'm finding the longer I wait the better.

The batch I'm currently on it going to get a month.

Thanks for the advice. It seems to be fermenting well.
