Got this in a kit from h/bay hbs:
Mangrove Jack Export stout
safale us-04
500g Specialty grains
500g dutch cocoa plus lactose
1kg dark malt extract
300g spray malt
T90 hops
my first "partial" i suppose if you could call it that. followed all instructions but I forgot to take an OG reading. About 10 days in and the gravity seems to be stuck at around 1.022 for the last 3 days. have raised the temp controller to 20degrees from 18.5 that it was beforehand, but still nothing happening at the moment. Contacted HBS and they said approx. 1.017-15 should be final gravity.
Doesn't seem to be any action going on and I'm starting to wonder whether I should pitch some more us-04 that I have handy?
