Hi guys,
Just put down a really nice belgian dubbel and went with WLP500. I pitched Sunday evening, wort was about 60 degrees. From what i read about this yeast is that you want to start it off at a low temp and gradually bring it up to really get the nice fruit flavors. Well this morning still no airlock activity so out of curiosity i opened the fermenter and there wasnt even a hint of krausen. I know this isnt the end all be all of fermentation but i think i should see something....anything...What is up with this? i brought it up to 65 while im at work today....hoping something has happened.
Has anyone else had issues like this with WLP500? Really bummed out >.<
