One of my last 3 extract kits before I try all grain. Brewed it yesterday following all the directions and was extremely sanitary. The only thing I did differently was I used a White Labs "California Ale" liquid yeast instead of the included Muntons because I had a problem with the Muntons once before. My local HBS recommended it for this batch. I took it out of the fridge several hours before pitching and shook it up before adding it. To this point, 36+ hours after I put it in the fermenter I still have no activity (bubbles). I may be jumping the gun here because we usually let our brews sit at another buddy's house for fermentation and I just haven't seen this, but I'm getting a little worried. Should I be?

At about 1:00 PM today it will be 72 hours since I put it in the fermenter and I still have no activity. As a matter of fact the solution in the air lock seems to be going in reverse.
