Hi gents,
We made a 10.5% stout a month ago. We had the idea that during bottling day that we would simply bottle + brew another stout batch to put on top of the yeast cake, which started from 3 pouches of S-04.
We filled it back up with cool wort (around 60F) about half way, shook the crap out of it, then proceeded to fill it all the way full.
Well, after 3 days of proper fermentation temperature, we are finally getting 1-burp per second.
Is 3 days lag time normal for this method?
