Day 7 (Video Clip)

Day 7


Looking very closely at the meniscus of the cider, I see tiny bubbles rising to the top, confirmed by the bubbling sound from the airlock.

The cider's color has noticeably changed from amber to a very golden yellow.

Day 5 (Video Clip)

Day 5

We installed the airlock this morning.  The little water column inside the airlock (left side) allows the gases to escape through the water and out of the perforated closure without allowing ambient air to come back inside the carboy.

You can see the process in this short video clip.
