Hi can anyone help?
I know it must get boring answering the same questions but this is the first time I have used a starter to brew.
Anyway here is my situation. I brewed on Friday and pitched my yeast about 10.30 pm at about 18c (64f). I didn't see any fermentation action till Saturday (3pm). It then went vigorously for about 30 hours and then almost seem to stop. I thought maybe I have a stuck fermentation so I checked the gravity this morning and it is at 1.016 from 1.046. Is this too quick of a drop? Should I add more yeast or leave it be for longer?
Sorry for the questions but I am relatively new to brewing.
