We pitched yeast (White Labs Trappist) about 18 hours ago, and I'm seeing no change at all inside the carboy. The sediment settled to the bottom, and it looks like a big glass container full of tea, or maybe flat cola. We pitched at approx 68-70 degrees, after boiling and chilling our wort (extract).
This is our second batch...first batch, using a different White Labs strain, was actively going within 12 hours...frothy foam on top, airlock going like mad, roiling particles all throughout the beer...should I be panicking?
I'd take a hydrometer reading, but I wonder if I'd even tell anything if it WAS starting the ferment, since it's so recently pitched?
