Brewed a Berliner Weisse on monday (72 hours ago), and pitched the Wyeast Berliner Weisse blend.
A couple mea culpas:
1) I may have pitched too hot. (I may have pitched at 130 deg instead of the 85 deg I thought I was pitching at)
2) I broke my hydrometer, so I don't have anything other than beersmith estimates to go by.
So 72 hours have gone by with no airlock activity (and I know that don't mean ****), so I decided to crack the bucket and take a look/smell. There is no krausen, and the wort still smells sweet. There's no sign of activity at all.
What would you do?
