I have three buckets holding about 7 gallons of juice each. Two Niagara and one of Cranberry. I put 1/4 tsp of K-meta in each one on the first day. The next day I put in the yeast nutrient and than a package of Red Star Montrachet Yeast. Its been 24 hours and the fermentation has not started. The temp is 68 degrees. Should I get another package of yeast to sprinkle on top? The yeast I used I mixed with hot water per the instructions on the package. I am used to mainly doing kits where you always sprinkle the yeast on top of the juice. The instructions say the yeast package is for 5 gallons, so maybe the additional would give it a boost?
