I brewed a Golden Ale on Sunday and direct pitched it with a seasonal WYeast 3739 that I had picked up last Summer and kept in the fridge since.
No activity whatsoever at 65 degrees house temp. I can't get any more 3739 so my plan is to either repitch it with Dual 1214's tonight, or buy one 1214 and create a 1L starter then repitch the starter tomorrow?
Which is preferable? Is there risk to letting the wort sit essentially unpitched for another day or two? Or sit grossly underpitched (would that be worse if I'm actually getting some activity but only enough to create off-flavors?).
If that is risky then I can just buy two of the 1214's and pitch ASAP before anymore time elapses.
