I brewed a kit beer little over a week ago (MJ american pale ale). Rehydrated the dry yeast sachet in half a jar of weak DME+water, left it for about an hour. It seemed to become quite active (foamy) before I pitched it in the fermenter with the brew.
After a couple of days there was a good krausen.
Couple days later krausen was gone.
Took a sample today and it is still over 1.020. But fermentation activity seems to have slowed to a stop. Beer is really hazy. Has a but of a dried apricot flavour.
What should I do? Pump temp up? I've had it around 14C so far.
