Thank you. I have some learning to do for sure. Appreciate your replies.

Thanks Reg. Appreciate your reply. I might do some reading on yeast to learn more. The brew is progressing well now. Here’s hoping

Thanks. It wasn’t a kit yeast. However I ended up giving it a big shake yesterday (it’s a small Carboy) and it started. It was like the yeast was asleep. Anyway, she is bubbling now. All good. Good learning for me that it does take a few days sometimes. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for that. Will do

Hi, I’ve just started brewing with grain and hops instead of the canned wort in a 5ltr fermenter. The fermentation only went for 2 days and stopped bubbling. Any ideas why? Is it a temp thing? I used a blow off hose for the first day. Is that why? I will leave it there for a week still. But...
