My first brew was today, and everything was going well until it came time to pitch the yeast. I gave the smack pack a decent smacking several hours ago when I started, but when I poured it into the fermenter bucket I saw an unbroken packet of dark orange/brown liquid. The yeast packet broke and poured out, but I'm afraid they're either all dead from sitting at room temp in the bag without food or they won't be able to get the job done in the wort. Should I add the other packet to the wort??
