I recently got a kegerator and decided to try my first keg ferment. I wanted to ferment and serve in the same one, so built a spunding valve to try and monitor pressure.
So far I'm ~72 hours in and there's no pressure built up. How long should this take? Should I have started with a blowoff tube instead or does that matter? There could be a leak too, I didn't pressure test my spunding valve. Rookie mistake!
I'm probably going to crack it soon to verify the yeast is going. It was proofed prior to pitching so I'm confused as to what the issue could be, or I just need to keep waiting.
I used fermcap S for the first time to reduce krausen too.
