Hey guys,
I just brewed my first batch of autumn amber ale from midwest . it was an extract kit and i did everthing to the letter par the instructions. pour my wort through a fine strainer to aerate and gave it a stir.(still think i didn't do it enough) S.G 1.046 and pitched my yeast muntons std yeast at 73f stuck it in my ferment chamber. ( whirlpool fridge with johnson a419 set at 67 f and it was a slow start to a nice run till day 2 early day day 3 and then nothing with a F.G of 1.021. On day 4 still at 1.021 tried some yeast energizer and a gentle swirl and still nothing . Day 5 still at 1.021 was told to try a repitch with muntons std yeast and some yeast nut. have i killed this beer or should i just wait it out ? going to leave it in the fermentor for 2 weeks par instructions.
