I ordered ingredients about 2 months ago for the next batch of beer. One of those was a wyeast smack pack. I finally opened my box today and realized I ordered the pack and then realized it needs to be refrigerated. So its been sitting at room temperature for the past 2 months in a shipping box.
I decided to activate the pack and break the bag inside. It's been over 4 hours and doesn't seem to be swelling anymore than it already was when I pulled it. Is this pack dead/ruined?? Or are those little yeast still alive, just slow starters?
Thoughts anyone??
