Had smacked 2 Wyeast the other day so this morning they were nice and puffy.
Problem is I didn't have any light malt like I though I had and no car, so I used some liquid malt instead, boiled with water till mixed. However when it was cool I took a hydro reading and it was about 1.012.
I had read that it should be around 1.020 or more, but I pitched the yeast and figured tomorrow I will make up a bigger starter and repitch again. Is this what I should do? Make up a higher gravity wort tomorrow and repitch?
I have not seen any action yet, and temps are about 20ish in the cupboard.
This is my first Wyeast so still learning.
Any advice?
Cheers.
