Hey,
I did my first batch on Saturday afternoon. I did everything according to plan, sanitized, proofed the yeast, made sure all temps were good.
Its a Coopers Lager kit, they recomend a ferment temp of 21-28 Deg C. Its sitting at 21 steady.
As of today at 2PM there was no visible action out of the airlock. Could the yeast be dead? I havent taken the cover off yet so I cant see whats going on inside (its a pail). I didnt use what came with the kit for yeast, I used a certain german yeast I bought from my LHBS. He said its good at 20ish degrees.
Should I wait another day then pitch another batch of yeast?
Dave
