Hi all - after a normal brew session last night, 4th so far, a minor kid crisis (don't ask - haha) prevented me from icing down the wort to pitching temperatures. I ended up leaving the wort to cool in the primary with an airlock on it. This morning it was at temp so I pitched (smack-pack) and aerated with the usual shake and whisk. 12 hours later and zero activity, which is a first for me. Assuming the yeast is fine (@ 6 months old, I wasn't surprised to see only minor bulging in the pack after an overnight sit), is it generally considered a no-no to let the wort sit for ~10 hours after brewing?
Thx!
