Personally I think that 48-50 is not to cold for 2124. Last brew I did I fermented it 45 and it started up just fine. Just wait a bit longer and take a gravity reading.

Man that's really cool. What size batches are you doing with your setup? I would really like to build a setup like that in the near future. I love the fact that it doesn't take up a ton of space.

My choices for something like this would be. WLP 029, 810 or wyeast 1056. All those yeasts will turn out a very clean brew. Just make sure to keep your ferment temps at 65 or under if possible.

5 days should be enough to step up twice. If you have a stir plate things move along a little faster. If not you can always use the better bottle for your starter.

Has anybody ever tried this while fermenting in water bath? I wonder what the temp difference would be? Being that water is a lot more denser than air. And how long would it take till things even out?
