I made a 10 gallon batch of esb the other day. split into two carboys. everything about these two are identical. i mixed 3 packets of s04, split between two cups to rehydrate. Pitched within 1 minute of each other. both carboys at the same temp.
As you can see one carboy fermentation is well underway, the other no signs whatsovever.
I am not alarmed at this point, just find it interesting that two carboys that are exactly the same start fermentation at different times. Only thing i can guess is the one that didnt start is closest to the compressor hump, possibly its a tad cooler than the other one.
