Using WLP005 (english ale) in my brown ale right now, pitched it a little high at 86F, and although I got most of the yeast out I'm not sure I really got it all. I thought for a few days that it was not fermenting at all and I had killed the yeast. Started fermenting (I believe) about 36 hours after pitching, but it's been another 26 hours since then and it's not really fermenting as vigorously as I'm used to. There are almost no bubbles, and the krausen is kinda sparse. The airlock is bubbling about once every 20 seconds. This was my first time using a liquid yeast, and up to this point I have only ever used Lallemand London ale yeast, which is a dry yeast. That usually starts pretty vigorous fermentation within 10 hours of pitching. Should I be worried? I bought another packet of WLP005 and I was wondering if I should pitch that too?
