Hi. I brewed the following batch yesterdy:
7# Pale LME
.75# Corn Sugar
1# Maris Otter
.125# Aromatic
.75# British LT Xstal
1oz. Northdown @boil
1oz Challanger @30
1oz Progressive @50
The yeast I used was harvested from secondary a week ago. White Labs British Ale yeast.
The problem is that its been 17 hrs since I pitched and there is absolutely no sign of activity at all. I was under the impression that recycled yeast would have a shorter lag time bc there's so many more yeast cells in the beginning. When I pitched the same yeast the very first time I used it, I had airlock activity the next day.
Should I wait, or head to the LHBS for some fresh yeast? The problem is that the brew shop is closed on Monday, so if I dont get it today, it will be Tuesday before I can get it.
