I brewed 11 gallons on 9/5 with an OG of 1.053. It didn't start fermenting until 3 days later, and is at about 1.018 right now. Is anyone else getting an abnormally slow fermentation, too? There are a couple other factors (immature stater and little headspace in the carboy) that might have also contributed to the slow progress, but i wanted to see if anyone else is experiencing the same thing.
I split a 11g batch w/ a friend. My buddy put s04 on his and it took off overnight and moved along smoothly. I used Wyeast London Ale III and it took a couple days before it really took off, and then I needed a blow off tube.
