Ahh okay, good thing to know about that specific yeast. Im gonna let it go over the weekend and take a reading with both refractometer and hydrometer and see how they compare.

Yeah about that from what I can see. I’ll give it a few more days and see what ends up happening. Maybe throw another pack in if I don’t see any improvements.

Refractometer

Adding another pack won’t affect it in any way?

Okay I’ll give that a shot thanks

Fermenting at 70

Would making another starter and throwing it in help or would it be too much for the beer and throw it off in the flavor profile?

Yeah I tried that as well and only got a bit of a reaction but not much. Didn’t seem to lower the gravity at all.

I was adding LME to the fermentor in hopes the yeast would still be active and eat some of it up to bring the gravity lower. I mashed at 152 and London ale 3

Hey everyone, I brewed an ipa last weekend and the gravity came in lower than I expected. OG was supposed to be 1.064 but I came in at 1.054. Fermentation took off fast for the first two days then seemed to just stall out. Now I’m only at 1.020 and I need to get down around 1.009. I boiled some...

Hey guys thanks for the input. I have a spike conical and Tilt Hydrometer and both were around 67-68 when I pitched the yeast. Still up high in temp..

Made a stout today and pitched the yeast at the recommended temp at 67 degrees. Came back a few hours later and the temp climbed to 79. Is this an okay thing? Is the yeast just super active? Will it come back down? Just hoping it doesn’t ruin the beer

Just checked on my home brew and it’s hard to tell if it’s yeast or mold? Doesn’t smell off putting or anything but looking to see if anyone else has an input from the pictures. How can you tell? Only did a few batches so far and this is the first time coming across this
