    Made my first ever yeast starter, and nothing is happening

    Yeah, seems to be the case Just odd as none of my other brews using same setup have done it without bubbling. Anyway, will keep an eye on it but seems to be doing it's thing :rock:

    Made my first ever yeast starter, and nothing is happening

    Quick update, gone from 1045 to 1025 or thereabouts so obviously fermenting away without bubbler activity

    Made my first ever yeast starter, and nothing is happening

    In fairness starter didn't show much sign of krausen etc but I persevered :( I'll give it a bit more time then check gravity. Have the dry yeast as back up if needed. Thanks

    Made my first ever yeast starter, and nothing is happening

    Used DME and water, boiled and then cooled. Added yeast and then 24 hours on stir plate Stir plate was in kitchen so at room temp Batch is at 20 c. Admittedly didn't check if starter had fermented, just assumed Will do a hyrdro reading next, just checking to see what my options are if nothing...

    Made my first ever yeast starter, and nothing is happening

    Brewed a Mosaic pale ale and did so using my first ever yeast starter. Yeast was California ale yeast, all in date etc Bucket is sealed but no bubbler action. Coming up to 48 hours now So what can I do to kick start things? Have a packet of similar dry yeast if that's any use?

    First time attempt at water treatment

    Not at the moment but don't have to use that water, was more about how to go forward if that was what I was going to use. Like i say, not treated water before. Have access to the in laws fresh water well but need to get the water tested there methinks
