Ok the weather has been very cold here the last two weeks and I think that it has defiantly affected my fermentation process. I am fermenting an amber ale so Im assuming that the temp. should be in the 65-70 degree range. I dont know exactly how cold it has gotten in my house but I know that it has been very cold in the house lately.
So my question is, can I or should I add another packet of yeast and let it sit another two weeks? I have a feeling that the yeast has gotten too cold and isn't doing its job correctly. I took a SG reading today with a hydrometer and it read at 1.018. I know there is some type of correction that has to do with temp but I don't know how to do that.
What should I do?
Thanks
