I am in the process of making my first batch of liquid yeast. I started a batch of American Ale Wyeast Propagator 1056 smack pack two days ago in a 100mL flask. I put it on my homebrew yeast spinner (thanks to all for the tips), and it was bubbling away like crazy from the start. After 8 hours it was seeping out of the airlock a little bit but was looking good. The next day all the foam settled down and it has been foam free since. I haven't seen anymore airlock activity and was wondering if this is normal, or if something went wrong. I was planning on brewing the wort tomorrow (Sunday 6/29), and don't want to start a batch with bad yeast. When I made the yeast starter, I put a half cup light DME in 400mL water. I then added the yeast and the food smack pack.
