First off I wonder if my problems may be not sealing primary. I used a new 2 gallon bucket and after 7 days hadn't noticed any bubbles in the lock[old style S lock] but checked it yesterday and it had went from OG of 1.996 to SG of 1.000. I transferred it to a secondary. This is the second time...
Used fresh unopened yeast that I had started for 6 hours and the mix sat over 24 hours before adding the started yeast. Still is showing no activity. What do I do now?
OG was 1.100 and haven't checked the current SG and didn't taste it or smell it. I wondered about leaking gas but everything seems good.First couple days it was releasing a couple bubbles a minute now nothing. I'm using the S style locks.
Looking back thru my book I used 2 cups sugar instead of...
Mixed a new gallon from Welchs grape concentrate on the 8th and the next day started the yeast for 4 hours then added it. Started working and bubbling very almost immediately so I was pleased. Did this for a couple days then yesterday the bubbling stopped and this morning I notice a white film...
Transferred this to the secondary this morning after 9 days and the SG was .990. Put a clean lock on it and will let it sit for another couple weeks then transfer again. So far so good with this batch. Thanks for the help fellas.
