Hey peeps. Just brewed my 2nd NEIPA yesterday. Used the same recipe, same yeast (Omega DIPA), etc. The only thing i changed was the water profile. My first NEIPA had 30 hours post pitch before visible signs of fermentation showed up. This one is appearing to do the same thing, as I'm about 26-27 hours post pitch now with no active signs of fermentation.
I know that no airlock activity and no Krausen doesn't mean it's not fermenting. I also know that it's important that the first dry hop be done during fermentation.
Is it worth it to pull a gravity sample now to see if it's moved and if it has, add the dry hop? Or at this point just wait until there is a krausen which will most likely be tomorrow morning?
