So, I'm brewing an Oberon clone 2 days ago and took my wyeast out of the fridge and put it outside to warm it up. Well I forgot about it and over an hour later after baking in the sun I brought it back in. I waited a bit before smacking it and then waited almost 6 hours and there was no swelling whatsoever. I was afraid i killed the yeast from baking them in the sun but I read that you could still pitch wyeast without signs of swelling so I went ahead and pitched it. Well, two days later and still no activity in the air lock. I talked to a guy at my lhbs and he recommended taking another hydro reading which I did and there was no change from my OG and it still had that sweet taste of wort.
I was going to go ahead and re-pitch and was wondering if I need to re-aerate before doing so. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
