Last Sunday I brewed an Irish Stout with some added Dark DME to kick up the alcohol content. Before I brewed, I made a yeast starter two days in advance with White Labs liquid yeast. This was suggested due to the added alcohol content. The starter was pretty active but calmed down around the time I was going to add it to the cooled wort but no worries. Everything went great during the brew, cooled to 75 and pitched the yeast.
I've been waiting all week and I haven't seen much activity from the airlock when I've checked. What is the best way to tell if my yeast died/is inactive? How do I revive it without ruining the batch? Should I add a pack of dry yeast to get it going or is my batch sunk? Please help.
