I started my first brew 1pm yesterday and today at 6am I've found that it's fizzing and a must is already starting to form. I got my brew set up on an air lock now. Is the speed in which my fermentation set a good thing or should I be worried?
Full process:
We started off with prepping some Premium Rouge yeast. We warmed the honey in a pot of water brought almost to boil on the stove. Brewed 1cup of water with two bags of black tea. Took two cups of dried figs tore them and tossed them in. Poured 128oz of apple juice and 36oz of honey. To get it started. Tossed in 3.8lbs of quartered apples with all leafage, stems, and seeds removed. Added 15 raisins and a whole orange quartered with seeds removed and peel on.
Added 1tsp of ground allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, and 6 crushed clove.
Rouge yeast was added after mixing. The whole brew was shaken for 5 minutes to aerate at start 1:40pm, 3:45pm, 5pm, and 7:36pm
Current weight is 1.110 (I didn't measure at start)
Currently single bubble in air lock every 3-4 seconds.
