    Skeeter pee might be stuck

    I started my pee on 7-10. The starting sg was 1.080. On 7-17 I added last bottle of lemon juice, energizer, and yeast food. It was bubbling right along. I forgot about it and checked the sg yesterday and it is on 1.010 and is not doing anything. What should I do next?
