Weak (if any) fermentation

[Milhouse]

When you say packet yeast do you mean one that came under a kit lid or a commercial one?

Either way you may have a low attenuation yeast strain?

 

[Paddy Melon]

Yes , it was the one under the lid. and then I used another packet yeast I had and although it activated before I introduced it, once I introduced it nothing happened.

Have you got a hydrometer?

 

[Paddy Melon]

yes I have.
