Hi all
I put a John Bull Bitter and a Geordie Yorkshire on nearly 2 weeks ago
Now i had a temperature drop at the start and for the first 3 days it was at like 15 deg..So i moved both bins to my porch ..where it a cosy 22-24 (although the wife hates them there) ..they were there for a week
...now on Saturday I came to drop them both to secondary ferment
1. The Geordie looks to have performed better and is NEARLY at the right gravity on the hydrometer. so i primed again with 1/2 cup sugar and resealed in new fermenting bin (push lid)
2. The john bull is NOWHERE close to gravity though though ..so i dropped it to a new bin with airlock and primed with 1/2 cup sugar but ...no damn bubbles in airlock ..NOTHING ..what can i do ??
I dont want to lose a good barrel ..Please help
