Should i flush this brew?

Hello,

I found a 6months old packet of Wyeast 1388 in the fridge. I made a starter, and it was going very slowly, but in the end, it smelled like it should, and it stopped fermenting. But it was all very very slow.

I've made a full brew now, and it is fermenting, but it is very slow, like the starter was. OG: 1.082. Is there any chance that yeast is too old to ferment a brew untill the end?

To me, it seems like it shouldn't mean a thing as long as it is fermenting. Is this correct?

Thanks,
Marius

correct. wait and see. if it is going, it is alive. see it through.

Let it do it's thing. If you did a culture you should be fine. If it all goes south you can always use it to boil bratwurst.

Hehe, that is good news. it was fermenting a lot more this morning. Suppose it was just a slow start.

Kind regards,
Marius
