Getting frustrated with beer kits. This is the second one I've tried now (both Geordie's Yorkshire Bitter since that is the cheapest kit in my LHBS) and they both seemed to fail. On the first one I started with the can and added 1kg of malt spray. The OG was 1.046. After three weeks in the FV it was only down to 1.022 and wouldn't budge. Moved it into a secondary (which I now know to be a mistake since I discarded all the trub) and left it for another couple weeks and it was still at 1.022 and tasted terrible. This time I used the same (1kg of spray malt and the canned wort) and came out with 1.041 OG. It's been 2 weeks now and I've been testing my SG every few days. After week 1 it dropped to 1.030. At the end of week 2 it was 1.024 and now at the end of week three it's still 1.024. Could it just be the yeast that comes with the can? My apartment is rather hot so ambient liquid temp tends to run around the 21-22 mark. Perhaps a different yeast would work? Is there one that's tolerant of slightly higher fermentation temperatures? I've just noticed Tesco's has a sale on homebrew products and Wherry is down to ã16. I've been really tempted to try this as it's been reviewed on this site as a better kit than the Geordie's and everyone says how good it tastes. Problem is if my flat is too hot I don't want to be burning cash that I could be brewing cider with instead. Can always wait till winter to brew my ales I suppose :P
