Hey guys...I'm starting my 2nd batch of cider now and having some concerns...
Tuesday evening I put the 5 crushed campden tabs in...12 hours later, the pectic enzyme, and 12 hours later the nottingham yeast (wednesday evening)...
it is now about 60 hours later and there are some medium sized bubbles on the surface, but they have pretty much been there since thursday morning...no activity in the airlock, and some globs of whitish/yellowish stuff on the surface that looks like yeast blobs...
so i'm a tad worried here...maybe I activated the yeast wrong? I put it in warm water for awhile and then let it gradually cool down to room temp and put it in
this is the first time I've used nottingham, so I'm not really sure how it's supposed to behave...
