Hey guys . . . I just wanted to ask . .
I just wanted to ask; I bought the Belgian Witbier extract kit from NB, and I got their liquid yeast packet from them. I accidentally froze it for like 30 minutes a while ago, and then put it in the fridge for the last 2 weeks. On the bag it says to not freeze it, and I was wondering if me freezing it for those 30 min, killed all the yeast?
Also, I did my first brew at the house yesterday and started off with 5 gallons of water, and i think I ended up with only 4.5 gallons of wort after all was said and done. Should i fill it up with another half gallon or does it really matter?
FINALLY, I popped the packet inside the yeast packet and let it sit for about an hour and a half. It said that the packet should inflate over this time, but mine never did. I just pitched it when the temp of my wort got to 78F.
How do you think I am? I pitched yesterday at 9PM and no activity today at 9AM. I know it can take 24 - 72 hours, but just being a noob
