Yesterday afternoon i put together my 2nd brew with a Muntons Nut Brown ale kit following the same precedure as i did with my first, which turned out fine. I noticed that this time round the wort didn't produce nearly as much foam or "head" early in the process. I added the yeast from the kit dry by sprinkling it on top and put it away to ferment. The airlock showed no activity for about 10 hours or so. This is a lot longer than it took my first brew to start. Also this 2nd brew hasn't seemed to bubble through the airlock as vigorously. And now after approx 20 hours after the airlock showed activity it has slowed to effectively zero.
So i guess my question is, is this a concern? Is my yeast dead?
My first brew was a Munich Lager kit.
