I am not familiar with the safale yeasts, this if the first time I pitched one after using white labs liquid and danstar notty exclusively for my ales. I have heard such good things about this yeast that I decided to pitch one into a 1.070 OG IPA. I rehydrated the yeast for 15 minutes in 80 degree water and pitched this yeast into my wort at 75 degrees.
After 24 hours I am finally seeing airlock bubbles but one ever 5 minutes or so. Not a vigorous fermentation at all. The internal temp of the fermenter is sitting at 66 degrees constant. Do you think this yeast will give good fermentation attenation at this temp? The notty has always been such a vigorous ferementer that i am not used to something this subdued. Is this normal?
