I brewed a chocolate stout on Saturday after 2 1/2 years since my last batch. My brewday could have been better. I made a 3 gallon batch to split into 3 one gallon carboys. I ended up losing .5lb of 2-row malt by trying to get it into the bag by myself while standing.
Anyways, I cooled it to 74, pitched S-04, and stirred it to distribute the yeast. There was a little activity in all 3 on Sunday, less on Monday, and I hadn't seen any this morning. Is there something I need to do for it? Also, I have cocoa nibs soaking in vodka to add after primary fermentation is done. It's my first time adding after primary. What are some ways to add it without introducing more oxygen?
