I brewed a triple with this yeast last weekend. I made a starter, about 1g, chilled and decanted. Pitched into 10.5g of 1.074 wort at 65F. Recipe was basically Jamil's BCS tripel, almost all pilsner malt, but I mashed at 151 instead of 149 or whatever he's got. Oxygenated with a paint-stirrer type set up, getting a good vortex for close to a minute, which is my usual oxygenation routine.
After seven days, the wort is at 1.030. After two days, I raised the ferment temp to 68, and after five days bumped it to 72. Is this yeast just really slow, or what?
I'm going to give it another few days, and if it still isn't down, I'm thinking about whipping up some US-05 and pitching it at high krausen to see if that knocks it down.
