I made a porter last night, of which there is 7 gallons. I managed to fix six gallons into my primary fermentation bottle but an additional litre had to go into a demijohn.
Using the same yeast starter (which I thoroughly mixed before pitching), I pitched around 1.25 litres into the primary and around 25ml into the demijohn.
Today, the demijohn looks like this:

But there appears to be no activity in my SS brew bucket holding the main batch; no airlock action at least (I haven't taken the lid off yet). I started it going at around 11pm last night.
When should I start to worry about the 6 gallon batch?
