Maybe a noob question but did my second brew with s-05 and the yeast activity was different. My first with this yeast had an OG of 1.035. It dropped to 1.010 so it was fermenting but almost no krausen.
Just finished another batch and the OG hit 1.048 and now on day 2, krausen is growing. I wouldn't say explosive by any means but a good mound.
So the question is lower OG less krausen? Or is it the type of beer? Last week was a Pilsner this week was a stout.
Could it be oxygen? I know on the Pilsner I was having issues with getting air into the batch before I pitched.
