Yeast issue

pgenius · Feb 11, 2009

I am worried that my yeast has a problem. I did a yeast starter with a vile of liquid White Labs California Ale V yeast and after 2 days it showed some but little activity. I brewed anyway and pitched it. If I don't see noticable activity in a few days should I pitch more of the same yeast into the carboy?

Cheers!

I have yet to see an actual starter I've made do any kind of noticeable activity, but activity it does! If you hold the cap on the starter container and shake it up, you should see carbonation just like a beer. If so, then it's working, and don't worry about it.

How long has it been since you pitched the yeast in the wort?

It's ok, the yeast started working already in the primary. Thanks
