Brewed yesterday and pitched a pack of rehydrated US 05 at 1230 yesterday (noon). At 4PM sunday still no activity.
At what point do I need to consider repitching?

Tuesday - after a gravity check...

What was the starting gravity and what is it at now?
US05 has always been a slow starter for me (that applies for all dry yeast I've ever used), so I wouldn't sweat it yet.
But even then a leaky fermenter seal somewhere is more likely than dead yeast. A gravity reading will tell you more than anything else.

1.065 is the OG. It's not a leaky fermenter. Hate using US 05. Just didn't have time to make a starter so had to use dry.
All the other times I used US 05 it was slow but never more than 24 hrs
