I bought a Coopers kit. There I said it! It was something easy my wife could get me for our anniversary.
Anyway, I think I got a bad batch of yeast. It has been siting for 4 days and my gravity is exactly the same as it was at teh start...1040. Is it OK if I stop at the LHBS and get some good yeast to try and jumpstart it? It looks like the yeast was actually doing something (sediment at bottom and ring at top). Do I give it a good shake to get the sediment off teh bottom and add yeast?
If you guys think I am wasting my time, I'll just dump it. It was only the Lager that came with the kit.
TIA,
John
