I always become too concerned when I have a yeast starter that doesn't look right. In the past it's always proved to be for nothing as the yeast always did it's job.
However, yesterday I mixed up a starter using Wyeast 2278 Czech Pilsen. The smack pack didn't swell at all, now I know that's no indication of bad yeast so I made the starter. I shook it every few hours until bed, then this morning I come to find this. It looks like no activity to me, but I've never used type of yeast before and wanted to ask if anyone who has noticed anything similar to what I have.
