So, nearly 5 years of brewing and I've never tried a lager. Shame on me? Well maybe.....but you know how it is, if the standard Australian garden variety is anything to go by, can you blame me.
Winter is especially cold up here on the central coast so I have decided to try make myself a standard pils.
My question is, what sort of behavior should I expect from my first week? I did what the books say and and fermenting it at around 12 Degrees with a SAFLAGER yeast, but not a lot seems to be happening.
I followed all my usual procedures in prehydrating my yeast, but the aitlock hasn't moved. How long should I be patient for? Is this normal?
HELP?
