After four days the SG went down to 1.014. Airlock activity is still around a bubble a second and there is a half inch white krausen. I've heard that some ciders can give off a 'rhino fart' smell, but assuming because this recipe uses yeast nutrient I am getting a sugary apple smell instead (which is much nicer).
I tried a sample of it at that point and was surprised that it still seemed sweet to me. It was also very tart at the same time which was overpowering. I am hoping that after this is all said and done that everything balances out.
