Hi Bob,
Sounds like you were eager to do a second fermentation! 3 weeks sounds a little to early..
I would recommend that you buy the 'real cidermaking' book shown on our books page - http://www.real-cider.co.uk/about-cider/cider-books/
Fermentation of cider usually lasts 6 months, over the winter.. and you can tell when is ready when bubbles stop or you can taste and then rack off the cider into bottles for example...
All the best,
Jim C
