Just wanted to give an update! I checked gravity today, since I have not had any activity in my air lock in 24 hours, it's down to 1.008ish! I have the sample in the fridge cooling, can't wait to give it a taste!

Okay guys starting to worry! I put my beer in the fermenter on Saturday around 4pm. Rehydrated my Nottingham yeast at 82 degrees, and pitched it. I didn't see much action in my air lock, and all the liquid was pushed over to the output side, I got worried and looked in the bucket, and saw a...
