tryed this recepie outa the new beer and brewer mag the other day, its the 1st beer i've fermented in my fridge
with my new temp control hooked up...Im fermenting at 20-21 deg with wyeast 3944. it was the 125 smack pack with
no starter made. I missed my target og 1.057 ended up with 1.053, any way the wort does'nt seem to be fermenting
particually hard for the 3 days it has been going. Its prob o.k, just not sure since i've not used this yeast before
or added any spice to a brew. does spicing a beer affect its fermentability??
any clues?
am i just paranoid??
