I'm very new to brewing and I brewed my first batch last week. I'm starting off with all grain Brewing and did a bad job at crushing the grains for this Guinness style beer and did not a airate the wort after putting in liquid white labs yeast. The first original gravity reading was 1.024 which I think is extremely low. Fermentation was almost inactive as I could see through the airlock so after 4 days of no activity I opened it sterilized my tools and aerated it with a drill attachment. At this time took gravity reading again and it was 1.012, does this mean there hardly any alcohol in it? After closed up there was slow activity from airlock but nothing that seemed extremely active just bubble every now then.
SHOULD I KEEP THE BEER OR TOSS THE BATCH AND TRY AGAIN?
