I just brewed an Irish Stout on Sunday (two days ago pitched), and the airlock has not started to bubble yet. Having said this, I am in no way worried that it wont start, but I am curious as to if this is normal since this is my first stout/ dark ale. I have been lucky with first day fermentation with my pale ales and wheat ales, etc. But I just wanted to know if stouts are more typically stubborn to start. I am using nottingham which I know is pretty psycho-active and I actually added about a half a pound more corn sugar than the recipe asked for
