I made a starter last night for an alt that I'm brewing (today!) and used White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kolsch yeast. When I just checked it, there was zero activity in the airlock (in fact, there was more water in the bubble on the down tube side). It looked like most of the yeast had settled to the bottom, so I swirled it around and now there's some SLOW activity coming out of it.
I've never used this strain before (nor have I ever brewed an alt before). Is it just a slow starter, or do I have some dead yeast.
Help! I need to know if I should still try and brew this today!
