How long is a piece of string????

Did you properly clean, sterilize and RINSE all your equipment (by
rinse I mean at least three times)?

Are you sure the fermenter is air-tight and not leaking?

Did you half fill the bubbler with water (not steriliser)?

You didn't chuck in the Stabiliser instead of the Yeast? :-)

Is it warm enough (17-24 c)?

Hope this helps and hope vino turns out to be a gudun.
