Hello,
I had tried a batch of ale with used yeast from a previous batch. I had followed all the steps in yeast washing on the thread that was posted here and made very sure sanitation was a major priority.
I set the yeast out 3 hours at room temp before I pitched into primary.
It has been about 12 hours and noticed no action. The airlock is sitting still and haven't noticed anything happening in the carboy.
Wondering if I have done something wrong.
Here is what I did in the process
1 - sit out yeast at room temp. 68F degrees
2 - all steps with brewing beer
3 - cooled wort and added to carboy
4 - drained most of liquid out of yeast in jars and gave the rest a good shake.
5 - pitched into beer
6 - checked on hour 10 and noticed no action.
Some steps of beer brewing left out, but I am sure you know that.
Any help would be great. I would like to use old yeast, but not sure if I should try this again.
Thanks
Beer that was brewed = blonde pale ale
OG 1.054
ABV 6.5
