I am brewing my first batch, and it seems to be slow to start bubbling.
It's a porter made with English ale yeast, and the hydrometer read 1.05
It's been 24 hrs and I'm just getting an occasional bubbling. I picked up the fermenter bucket (it's a 5 gal batch) and swirled it, while keeping lid and seal intact. It will bubble a little bit, then stop.
Should I continue to swirl it to keep the yeast from settling? Or is this bad for the beer?
