White Labs Trappist starter

[AaronWesternNY]

This is my first time using Trappist yeast. I have a 1.033 grav 2 liter starter I pitched a Trappist vial in. It must have been cold because after a day it didn't show any signs of visible activity. Day 2 I raised temps up between 70-80 F. Day 3- wort is cloudy, when swirled small bubbles form and pop, and appears to have a bit more than 1 vial of yeast settled on bottom.

Who has made a Trappist yeast starter? Is this what I get with this yeast? Will there be a mini krausen coming sometime soon? I feel it is on the right path and I probably just need more patience. Can someone yeast whisperer confirm this?

Thanks Army.

Starters often ferment out overnight with no visible signs. The "small" amount of yeast on the bottom is probably much more than 1 vial. RDWHAHB! It'll be fine!

I did a stepped starter with this yeast a few weeks ago, and the first step took a couple days to really get going. But the second step took off like wildfire and was done within about 24 hours, with yeast almost blowing out the top. So I'm sure you're fine.
