Nope. Sorry, shoulda made it clear. THAT was the Muntons kit with Stella Artois flavouring. That's still bubbling away nicely. The one that's stopped is the Beerman recipe... 3l water to the boil Added 500g Brewcraft wheat unhopped spray malt & 25g Halpertau hops & boiled for 60 mins Then added...

1012 at 16 degrees. Would the fact that I started it off and THEN reduced the temp have anything to do with it? Original gravity before I added the yeast was 1070 at about 18 degrees

Hey guys, well, I took the advice and went with a frozen 2l PET bottle, and sure enuff, the temp stabilised at 12 degrees. All was good for two days but now the sirlock has stopped bubbling...completely. Has fermentation stalled or finished? Cheers Andy

Here goes; 3l water to the boil Added 500g Brewcraft wheat unhopped spray malt & 25g Halpertau hops & boiled for 60 mins Then added a further 25g of the hops and simmered for a further 10 mins In the fermenter and added a tin of Cooper Canadian Blonde LME and blended in Added 500g Brewcraft...

It's about 20 degrees where it is. Like I said above, it's pretty cool down here anyway and I'm putting an ice pack on top of the carboy every day. Do I need to be more extreme?

Hiya, managed to get hold of the guy in the beer shop. He said that it is yeast and shouldn't have even been in the pack!! Good job I didn't throw it in then! It's bubbling away like a good'un so all seems well. I've got the fermenters in a nice cool spot under the house. It's all built in...

So do I put the YTB pack AND the Saflager yeast in? I just put the Saflager yeast in (last night) and this morning the airlock is, what you would call, "bubbling furiously"

The LME was fine, it was the two packets of powdery stuff that were rock hard. My mistake in the OP, they are 500g Wheat Unhopped Spraymalt and 1kg Czech Pilsner # 62 Converter. There was an 11.5g pack of dry lager yeast, labelled as such and a similar sized foil packet with the letters YTB...

Hi all, just bottled my first brew and leaving it to sit for a while to improve it. Got the bug now tho and went and bought a Muntons Stella Artois kit, but now I'm confused! Firstly, the kit came with the LME, 1 x 500g #62 Enhancer, 1 x 500g Wheat Malt, 1 x sachet of Saflager dry lager yeast...
