    I started this 11 days ago OG of 1.055, fermentation very active for 4 days tailed off after 7 and now I think all but finished at 1.010. I'm leaving it on the trub and have just added some dry hops as an optional recommendation. Never dry hopped before so a bit wary but you have to practice...

    Spoilt Yeast/Brew?

    Thanks I'll pitch today. I am still a bit concerned that because the wort was not chilled properly that would also be ruined. I'll see in a few weeks!

    Spoilt Yeast/Brew?

    I made a stupid mistake today by pitching my yeast in to the wort at a temperature of 75c instead of 75 f . I guess I've killed the yeast? Can I pitch another one tomorrow? Help appreciated

    Boiler Cover/Lid

    I made a stupid mistake today and pitched my yeast into my wort which was at the temperature of 75c instead of 75f. Stupid I know. Is there a way that I can recover this? My other query but not so serious is do I add sugar when the fermentation is finished and I move it to the storage pressure...

    Boiler Cover/Lid

    Thank you. My first and only brew was in a small outside shed with no ventilation and I found the vapour overpowering as I'd left the lid off. I did think if the lid was on the vapour created would dilute the beer. I'll boil lid off but this time nearer the open door,thanks.

    To pitch more Yeast?

    No I did not want to disturb it. Would you suggest a look and if there is some activity just leave it? If no sign of activity pitch some more? ]airlock activity is not the best way to check. Have you had a look at it?

    To pitch more Yeast?

    I brewed my first all grain brew on Sunday and now 2 days in I've no sign of fermentation via the airlock. The book I followed mentions that this is not always a problem but I'm not sure to wait 10 days and taste/bottle the beer or buy and add fresh yeast now. Any advice appreciated,thanks.
