Ok this is the first time I've had difficulty searching... but then again it's the first time I've been looking for something this "Specific"
Question. My beer keeps dropping in temp... down from 64.5 yesterday to 62/61 today as that's the temp in the pantry. No more Krousen on top only yeast cake piling up on the bottom.
So as I'm short on my gravity reading (OG 1.050 now 1.023 per reading yesterday) before the temp plunged over night.
So I bought a Brew Belt to heat it up.
Anyone here use it? as it warms up I hope the yeasties get re-activated... but if not I bought more to re-pich so that I can do my best to get to the FG 1.011. (yeast S-04, same as came in grain, extract and Hops kit.)
How long should the yeasties take to -re- activate if still viable? 24-48 hrs?
