It’s been 4 or 5 years since I’ve actively been brewing, but recently I caught the bug again. So I started up a batch and omg it’s alive! I’d forgotten how much fun this hobby can be!

Yo, it's my first time. Is that a lot of bubbles? I'm doing a lazy batch of applejuice cider with only a tiny bit of added sugar and never got that many bubbles. Figured I was being cautious.

This seemed like a pretty normal amount of bubbles to me, but it’s also been a while since I’ve brewed. Using different yeasts can also give you a lot of different results…
