I did an all grain on sat 12/29, my first one minus the one where the carboy broke... so sad:
5lbs esb pale
2.5 biscuit malt
1.0 crystal 60
0.5 cara pils
Soaked at 160/deg f 30 mins
Ghetto sparge to 5.5gal
Boiled 60mins with hops
Ended with 5gals in carboy
going for an IRA
Pitched american ale 2 smack pack at 60/deg f
Ok here is where I went wrong, just wanted to wing it and didnt get OG
Vigorous fermentation sun and monday
Tuesday nothing no bubbles looks like very little activity, it got cold in the house new years, moved to warmer spot in the house 62/deg f
current gravity 1.02
So is this stuck...? i plan on leaving it for the next 5 days while im out of town but i wanted to check in.
tasted wort sooooooooo good I really want this to work out
Any suggestions
