I brewed Jamil's Chocolate Hazelnut Porter last Sunday (2/15), and my OG was 1.059. About Midnight, I pitched a 2L starter of WLP001-California Ale, that I started on Saturday morning. Monday morning, about 8am, I noticed activity in the airlock and the beginnings of some krausen. My carboy has been in my freezer, set at 65F.
Tuesday night, I checked the gravity and it was 1.040. There wasn't any activity in the airlock, that I could tell. Around noon today, it was still at 1.040.
I have always just shaken my carboys to aerate. I usually get pretty vigorous fermentations, and typically hit my FGs.
How long should I wait before I take drastic action? Any ideas about what action I should take?
