I am new to brewing and am having a slight issue with my 1st brew.
It's a Youngs Lager.
The setup all went perfectly well and I used Brew Enhancer instead of Brewers sugar.
OG was spot on at 1042.
As of today it's been in the fermenter for 2 weeks and over the last 3 days I have had a constant reading of 1014.
The brew is supposed to be fermented in 4-6 days from start and is supposed to reach 1006 or below.
The fermenter has been stored in a stable temp of my airing cupboard at a constant temp of 21deg.
I have tried the swirl method to rouse the yeast but nothing.
I have some more yeast coming on the thinking that perhaps there was not enough to start with or that some May have been bad.
Any thoughts?
Regards..,
Kirk
