It may have already started. Can you detect production of CO2?
What kind of fermenter are you using?
I ask because mine wasn\'t bubbling because it wasn\'t sealed properly. It had started but not detected.

I have a 30lt screw top fermenter, and you are right it was not sealing as well as it should. It is bubbling away quite happly to itself. Thanks Mark
