Hi There, this is my first Pilsner, after about 24 hrs there is no bubbling when there normally would be...
I am not sure if Pilsners are normally like this or maybe they don;t bubble much when fermenting..
The packet of kit yeast was only 5g - which seemed a low to me. There is slight action on the top. I have given a bit of a shake to FV. Just wondered if this was normal for Pilsner, but yeast seems standard kit yeast - would not think is special Pilsner yeast. The recipe is very simple 1 Kg dextrose, the exact recommendations... Probably could have made a starter?
Pitched at 22 deg, and is 19.8 deg now so temp ok..
cheers
