Ok folks so this is my first lager. I made up the starter 2 days ago. I had it sitting room temp and then put in fridge last night before I went to bed. Brewed up this morning and as I was starting I took out the starter to be ready for it. Had the wert cooled down to about 70 and the starter was around 50. I dumped off some of the starter so I could stir up the yeast cake at the bottom and then poured it into the fermenter covered it and air lock inserted put into freezer set temp to 50 and had to get ready for work. Came home about half hour ago expecting to have some sort of action, after seeing what my rehydrated yeast did in my other brew, and nothing. So I decided to pop the lid off and as I suspected no krausen at all.
Question is should I be worried or should I give it a day or so and see what happens? I can easily grab another packet of yeast tomorrow just in case.
