hi there im new to all of this and have my first brew on the go. its the brew buddy cider kit and has been fermenting for roughly 40 hours. it has started to bubble slightly but not too much but has no head on it what so ever. is this normal? should i be worried? or am i just too impatient? thnx

It sounds like its going fine, i did a cider kit a few months ago and no head there either, as long as its bubbling away it should be cool, patience is most definately a virtue in this game,whilst waiting for that to finish brew something else to keep yourself occupied

Hi Burlo
I concur with Duncn
My second brew was a cider kit, and like you I was v worried that it didn't react like the first brew which was a beer kit (ie no head etc) - but like Duncn says as long as its bubbling away in the FV all should be hunky dory!
