So I brewed a 1.070 brown ale and pitched some rehydrated danstar Windsor dry yeast and fermentation started in about 12 hrs. The fermentation was rapid and a 2 inch krausen formed so I was content with that and thought everything was going great.however this only lasted for 48hrs(brewed weds everything stopped by sat morning)or so and now there is nothing not even any airlock activity?? Is it done or stuck?
I'm pretty new and never had everything go from rapid to nothing so quickly.
Should I be concerned and pitch more yeast or is Windsor really that fast? Fermentation temps were kept at 65 deg using ice packs in a water bath.
Thanks
