Hi all,
I started a batch of the below on the 6/5/12
I took a reading today and yesterday and about a week ago and the gravity hasnt moved from 1.020. There hasnt been any signs of fermentation for over a week, and the sample tastes fruity (for want of a better expression)
The temp has been at 20c and for an ale this would be ideal.
1 can of black rock east india pale ale
1 can of black rock light liquid malt
150g Dry Wheat malt
250 Carapils
15 g Amarillo
US 05 yeast.
Yeast pitched at 18c
I posted in an earlier thread that I didnt see much airlock movement, and had a look inside to see if there was anything happening. The fermentation was occurring, I just wonder how long I need to wait to see the FG gravity hit the intended 1.010 - 1.012
Do you think it was a bad batch of yeast? and would I need to repitch some more US 05? Or is the batch doomed?
Cheers
