Hello fellas. I'm new to this forum thing and glad I came it across it because it looks like I can get a lot of useful information from a lot of knowledgable people. I'm new to home brewing and definitely have a lot of questions. I started brewing almost two years ago. I brewed about 7 total batches with 3 of them going bad (never found out why). I stopped brewing about 8 months ago because of how busy life got but just got back to it yesterday. I enjoy doing this so much I had to just finally get my stuff cleaned up and brew even though I lacked confidence in what I was doing for two reasons 1. It had been so long and 2. My brew partner is now gone off to school so I didn't have someone to walk through the process with other than my books that I learned from.
My question is in regards to fermenting. finished my batch yesterday around 6pm and put the beer away to ferment. From what I remember fermenting typically started fairly quickly where I would be able to see the yeast working. It's been nearly 18 hours and I haven't seen any activity in the carboy. Any thoughts on what could be going on or what I should do? I haven't tried doing anything out of fear of messing things up. I will continue to do research. Thanks!!!!
