[corby_brewer]

Oh well this looks like my first FECKED up brew , its now been sitting in the secondry for a week and is still at 1.018 :wha: . God knows what i did wrong. So looks like this one is destined to be put own the sink.

 

[Muddydisco]

Don't chuck it dave you've been there done that before!
Try some Wine yeast either champgne or red wine It got my Imperial stout running again! when that was stuck at 1.045
Not worth throwing just for the sake of 1 packet of yeast

 

[Moley]

1.018's a bit sweet but not the end of the world, warm it up, pitch some more yeast like muddy says and maybe lob in some yeast nutrient, I'm sure you can get that down a few more points.

 

[tubby_shaw]

Dave 1.058 to1.018 is a fair drop and is 5.3% abv a couple more points here or there is not going to make much difference.
If it tastes ok drink it :thumb:

 

[evanvine]

I totaly echo MD's and TS's thoughts. :thumb:
Never thrown a brew yet, Forum's very strict here! :whistle:

 

[evanvine]

Just a thought Dave, what type of yeast do the commercials use for Barley wine and Special brew?

 

[corby_brewer]

oh well this went down the drain today, when i opened the top of the barrel and there was a strong smell of vinegar. Oh well better luck next time.

edit.... Probably fair to add that we only asked you why you removed the original "Tipped Hat" to Orfy who worked hard to perfect a Hob Gob clone? You posted that, then decided to take it off - I was confused why you would do that?

 

[corby_brewer]

As i told you in chat, i didnt realise i had deleted it untill you pointed it out to me.
