Yesterday I accidentally racked the wrong fermenter to secondary. The fermenter that I racked is a wheat beer that had only been in the fermenter for 4 days. Unfortunately I didn't realise until I took a gravity reading after it had finished transferring. Beer smith estimated the gravity at secondary to be 1.018 and the actual gravity was 1.026.
To fix this I was considering repitching the yeast but I've noticed there's still a fair amount of activity so fermentation definitely hasn't stopped. I'm using a corny keg for secondary and can release CO2 from the relief valve every half day. Is pitching yeast again a good idea? Is it even necessary to spend another $15 on yeast if there's still activity?
