In the smack packs which is the yeast and the activator inside?
The yeast is what sloshes around when you shake it, the activator is a 2"x2" separate pouch of nutrient that you "find", then smack to rupture leading to swelling when the yeast starts eating. Don't be afraid to really smack that pack (although if the yeast is still viable, pitching without activating is no big deal)
