I pitched yeast in my APA extract batch, it was more than 60 hours before I saw the first bubbling in the airlock. I assume the beer should not be negatively affected by this? Have you ever seen this before?
It probably not adversely affect the beer.

Similar problem - old yeast. Add to that, I kept a gift kit in my garage for over a year where temps range from low 30 F to high 90s. Added dry yeast packet to top of wort and see no activity. Temp about 70-72 F.
- How much time should I give it?
- After that time, is it possible to add another packet of "new" yeast without adverse impact to final flavor.
Thanks.
