I brewed my first AG batch yesterday.....a Guinness type stout.
Made a starter Friday with White Labs WLPP004. Got to pitch @ 10:30 pm last night.
Woke up about 1am to the sound of the airlock going crazy....almost nonstop.
Is this normal? The other batches I have done all started 12-36 hrs after pitch ...depending on the yeast I used. This is my first starter so I assume that has something to do with it.
I am happy with the outcome of my first AG batch...pre boil gravity was a point low but actually finished a bit higher than I expected. I have to commend all the AG brewers out there...its alot of work, more than I thought !!!
