    I added the dry malt after I had added the yeast. Not sure if this is a waste and try again or wait. It's been 2 hours and no bubbles. If I posted in the wrong place sorry, I don't belong to forums

    I did. I wanted to make sure it blended as good as possible.

    Most of my beers don't show signs of fermentation for 24 to 36 hours. Your beer should be just fine.

    Don't judge your fermentation by the bubbling of your airlock. I've had beers ferment without any airlock activity whatsoever. Just take a gravity reading in a week or so.

    As far as adding extract post boil, I wouldn't worry about it. Extract is concentrated enough that it's tough for it to carry bacteria. Plus, if you added it prior to cooling your wort, it probably got sanitized. Any temp over 180 degrees is hot enough to kill bacteria.

    Relax. Don't worry. Have a home brew.
