Moved to Sydney last week and yesterday set out to fill up all my empty bottles. I went to ESB and bought 2 fresh wort kits, Amber Ale and Lager. Pitched the Amber Ale @ 20C with WLP005 British Ale, and the Lager with WLP830 German Lager (the lager is in my fridge). This was around 1.00pm yesterday.
Just checked it before (6.30am), Ale @ 18C, and lager a bit cool <10C, and there is no krausen on either. Adjusted the fridge temp to slowly raise slightly. If any, it may be 4-5mm, with a yeast cake starting to form on the base. They are bubbling, albeit slowly, but on the Whitelabs info it states 5 - 15 hours before fermentation starts.
It just seems a little strange but these are my first brews with liquid yeast. With the packs of Saf, fermentation seemed to start alot faster with a high krausen formed overnight. Am I worrying about nothing?
Puzzled.......Duff.
