Cider not fermenting
« on: October 23, 2018, 02:42:20 pm »
I started an apple cider. Added brought it to a boil with my cane sugar and cooled it down, and added champagne yeast. After about 48 hours it still hasnt started ferementation yet. Is it taking longer because of preservatives in the apple cider or did i mess up somewhere?

Yes, if there are preservatives, it will be delayed for a while.  You can wait another couple days and hope for the best, or add more yeast.  It will eventually start up.
