I don't think I had enough oxygen in my wort. After 72 hours, there appeared no activity. I have a Mini-brew conical, so it's hard to see what's going on.
I dumped some from the bottom valve and took a reading. Same as my OG, so that's not a good sign.
I decided to remove the top and take a peak. Looked like krausen in top, but I could see some of the dry yeast mixed in as well.
I sterilized a spoon and stirred gently a bit to get the yeast down in there.
Not sure what else to do? What if there isn't enough oxygen? Why the krausen on top (maybe the top layer of wort had some oxygen from transfer?).
Hate to throw my first batch out :-(
