Morning all ,
New member to the site/forum , back brewing after 3 yr lay off . Excellent site & resource .
Anyway , just wondering if there's a right or wrong way to pitch the kit yeast . Put a new brew down yesterday :
Muntons Mount Mellick Irish Cream Ale
500g Coopers LDM + 500g Brewcraft Amber Malt dry
250g Dextrose & 200g Dried Corn Syrup .
Pitched kit yeast straight on top at 22 deg C , this morning , approx 16 hrs later , there's nothing happening , so sterilized spoon , gave a stir and walah , away she goes .
Haven't always had to stir the yeast though , sometimes pitching straight on top is enough . There could be other reasons i'm overlooking hence posting the question ,
Many Thanks & Happy Brewing .
