Hi all,
I a newbie and need some advice. I currently have a morgans golden saaz pilsner kit fermenting. I added 1kg blend of 25% glu, corn, light malt, dark malt and the yeast that came with the kit. Started with a SG of approx 1042 and has been on the go now for 6 days. sitting currently around the 1017 mark at present. On the 2nd day the temp dropped to around 16 degrees and it stopped fermenting. I read somewhere that if a pilsner is fermented under 16 degree it's much better. What did i do wrong? Am i supposed to be using a different yeast to be fermenting at that temperature? is this close to being finished fermenting?
cheers
Peter
