Brewed a Berliner W last week, let it sour for about four days with laco, then boiled Sunday night and pitched Monday morning. So 2 and a half days have gone by and NO airlock activity, no krausen, no nothing.
Did not use a starter, (it says you don't have to)
I pitched at about 70 and may have let the wort get down a little low (58 or so) but its in the mid 60s now.
I have only used dry yeast a couple of times but don't ever remember it taking this long to start. Now I'm out of town. I have a packet of SA-05 in the fridge for emergencies, if there's no activity by this evening I may ask the girl to throw it in there. What do you guys think?
