Default Liquid Yeast Starter Question.

Have a question about liquid lager yeast for the many of you who have far more knowledge than myself. I am making a lager using liquid yeast which i have very little experience with both lager and liquid lager yeast. How long should it take for a liquid lager yeast starter to begin showing signs of fermentation?

If possible, always give starters 2 days.

Some will start overnight, but depending on the ambient temp...2 days.
