Hey all! I just joined up a few minutes ago and have just recently started brewing and am having a small problem with my second batch of cyzer. It's in a 6 1/2 gal. glass carboy and I've pitched some Champagne yeast onto it and it weent well then stoppee abruptly. I've heard through podcaasts that pitching a lager yeast may munch on the other sugars and finish off the fermentation process. Anybody have any opinons on this strategy? Any help would be great!
 
Champagne yeast has a high alcohol tolerance so its unlikely that the active fermentation stopped because of a yeast problem. Most likely , its just consumed most of the readily available sugars and has slowed down. Its till fermenting just at a much slower rate.
