I keged. It tasted good and sour. I brewed a batch the same night. I added some watter to the yeast cake swirled it, and transfered it into the new wort. After 24 hours no fermentation. I pitched an old ( 2/3 month old) brett starter.
Finaly on the 4th morning its bubbling away. I dont know what to think of the long lag faze. I hope ill have a nice brett sour ale. Any thoughts on the long lag faze? Next time ill use the slury to make a starter.
