Well this is the first time I've ever had a yeast not start within 24 hours. I brewed up a stout yesterday and pitched a pack of Notttinghams when the wort reached 70f. Every time I've used Nottinghams in the past I've had activity with 12 hours. This time Im not getting anything and its been over 24 hours. Should I toss another packet into the beer or give it another day?
Heres the recipe if it matters,
6lbs DME
1 lb crystal
1/2 lb roasted barley
1/4 lb black patent
1 cup molasses
1 oz magnum
I've got my fementation bucket sitting in a swamp cooler full of water that reads 61f.
Any suggestions? RDWHAHB?
