Hey guys,
I'm new to the forum, and I am currently fermenting my third batch.
I made a Buffalo Sweat (oatmeal stout) clone from Northern Brewer this week. I pitched some Wyeast 1098 from a starter which seemed to get it going pretty quickly, but now the action has slowed considerably. I pitched in on Sunday at about 76-78 degrees, and it was bubbling fine for about two days. But then all air lock activity stopped, so I checked to see if I had any Krausen and I had none. I know air lock activity is not the tell all of fermentation, but I'm wondering if I should keep waiting to see if the yeast kicks in or if it's time to re-pitch?
Any help would be great!
