Pitched Yeast

Started Fermenting Today! Rehydrated our dry yeast and 'pitched' it! Vital stats:
ICV-D21
8 oz 104 degree water
2/3 packet GoFerm
1/2 packet Yeast (15 min)
Atemperated (mixed 50/50 with must (15 min))
Atemperated again (mixed 50/50 with must (15 min))
Then mixed into must

AT same time:
Added MLF culture Viniflora Oenos &
Leucofood
It's in a quasi-insulated area downstairs, heated by a 60 watt lightbulb. We'll keep an eye on it; should start bubbling away soon!
