It seems my latest IPA, brewed Sunday afternoon, has failed to begin fermentation. I'm not sure what happened really... bad yeast I suppose. I pitched a tube of White Labs California Ale, but then nothing happened. After 24 hours, I made a starter with some of the same strain I harvested from a Cream Ale. It got going OK, and I pitched that in after about 48 hours. It's been almost 3 days now, and nothing is happening. It's in a bucket, and it's now been opened twice. No bubbles, no activity. I've raised the temperature to around 68-70, too.
So, when is it time to say goodbye? When should I dump this into the sink?
