We're brewing a Citra IPA and fermenting at 67 degrees. The wort came into the fermenter at about 68 degrees...
We used WYEAST direct pitch and its now been 2 days with no activity. We are using a conical fermenter and there's about 3-4 gallons of headspace, so I'm wondering if maybe theres just too much height there for it to foam out of the air lock....??? Maybe it is working?
Also, we messed up and forgot to aerate the wort on its way to the fermenter, excitement got the best of us I suppose....
Thoughts on where to go from here?
