Noticing the opposite of what I would think to be good yeast activity sometimes.
After pitching yeast with in 3 days sometimes I saw nice to no co2 production.
All at 68 deg with 40 sec. of oxygen before pitch. 3/4" pipe for co2 gas off. All dry yeast was hydrated. Thump means it is blowing bubbles out of the pipe often. 5.5-6 gal batches
White labs 004 1.5 liter starter major co2 spill out OG 1.085
Fermentis K-97 11.5grams good thump up to 1 per sec at high K. old date OG 1.051
Fermentis 05 11.5 gram no thump new date OG 1.058
Fermentis 04 23 grams no thump new date OG 1.046
Fermentis 05 with a new date I would think should thump. Fermentis 04 doubled up with a new date should thump even more. K- 97 the sloth of the group with an old date thumps.
Your thoughts.
