Magnums Pear Cider Kit

[Greg2013]

I put this down yesterday evening(the carboy incident), used the kit + 1.5kg brown sugar(i like the flavour) and it is bubbling away rather slowly as of this morning. I added 2 tsp yeast nutrient to the carboy and i thought i would have a more vigorous fermentation going by this morning, there is activity but not as much as what i was expecting. Never measured the quantity of water i added but its up to where the neck of the carboy begins to curve in so i reckon about 20 litres ? I got a starting gravity of 1045, what should i expect this to drop to with the kit yeast/sweeetner packet that comes with this kit ?

Anybody that has done this kit before comment please on how it went and what results you got or tips you may have.

cant give any advise yet on taste but the fermenting started quite late too.. after 3 day saw the first bubbles in my airlock. But i did see a lot of foam activity on top of the brew so i knew it was allright .. Mine has still 3/4 days to go in primary and then i will rack it off.
