@ snow, he is doing it all out of extract and cans. Might be low in nutrient there. Well, looks like it because it's fermented but stalled saying there was not enough grunt in the yeast 'present' in the fermenter right now to do the job. Leads me to assume that yeast didn't get to grow enough in the beginning. Well, that's what I faced with my first kit beer, second I used nutrient and it worked just fine not much change in type of ingredients b/w the two. Actually, bought nutrient for ciders and threw a bit into beer just in case and it made all the difference. Tasted better too, none of the estery and yeasty smells from the yeast being tree too long. And both ferments were roughly he same time period, abt 3 weeks, second was also racked at 1016. Can't say it's one thing but either/both could be. Yeah? Correct ke if wrong mate. Thnx
