When the master of the feast tasted the water now become wine, and did not know where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom and said to him, “Everyone serves the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then the poor wine. But you have kept the good wine until now.” This, the first of his signs, Jesus did at Cana in Galilee, and manifested his glory. And his disciples believed in him.
The disciples did not have advanced degrees in organic chemistry. They didn't need one to recognize that suddenly the normal, predictable progression that led to the formation of wine had been suspended at the command of someone whom they had underestimated. This statement that they believed in Him indicates a transformation from casual acceptance to life-changing conviction.
