So I brewed up a batch last evening and while brewing I activated the 2112 Cal Lager smackpack which never really expanded. I pitched it anyway after about 5 hours just before going to bed at 73F. The temp this morning was 72F and there is no sign of any activity.
So now what...
I think I'm grasping at straws but is there any reason that this yeast wouldn't startup until it reaches it's max optimum temp of 68F or do I just need to go get another pack? (I'm thinking another pack picked up at the LHBS is the way to go.)
