The trick to fermenting honey or apple cider, or any sugar really, into alcohol is to set up a yeast party. What you want to do is set up a perfect place for your yeast, a little yeast heaven, filled with good food and warmth. You want to create a fun, wild, yeast party, one where everyone feels comfortable and happy, where yeast can really chow down on all the stuff you have provided, where nobody makes them feel like a hog if they eat too much or dance too wildly. Yeast like atmosphere; give them good dim mood lighting and a cozy space and they are down to party for a while. You want it to be just right. Not too hot, not too cold. If you don't get the temperature right, the yeast don't want to party at all. They just sit down and quit, no small talk, no picking at the snacks, they just shut down. I like yeast. I identify with yeast. Given the right environment, I too like to party. I also hate it if it is too warm. I too like being cared for...
