Hello.
I brewed a christmas ale 10 days ago and there hasn't been any yeast activity for a few days now.
I made a mistake in the mash - was going to mash at 67C (152F) but for some reason (I had many new people brewing with me so I wasn't thinking enough about the mash) so the heat was about 71-73C (162F). I'm using BIAB technique.
I pitched three s-05 from fermentis into the wort, airrated and didn't everything else correct. I was expecting FG of 1.022 but it seems to be stuck at 1.043. The question is, is there just too many unfermentables and I'm stuck with the beer as it is or is there some good technique I could use? I normally use liquid yeast so I could pitch a high attenuating yeast to it.
