Hi guys.
I brewed a woodfordes nog kit to 20litres last wed and added the yeast at 27degrees. At first it seemed inactive then burst into life with a good head of foam. Its been in the fv for 5 days now and has been flat with no signs of life since yesterday. sg was 1.044 and its now at 1.020. I was planning on bottling it of wed but ive read on a few threads(and been given the advice directly) that its better to leave it longer than the instructions say. Ive also read that it could be a good idea to give it a little stir to liven things up. Is this an ok way to move things along? or should i go out and buy more yeast? i only used the kit yeast in the first place and im getting the impression its better to buy a seperate yeast sachet. Why is this?
