Hey guys, I brewed a scotch ale 2 sundays ago (9) days.
I took an initial gravity, it was 1.03 (but there was a lot of foam when i had taken it, not sure if that would give the thingy extra buoyancy), it's been active, but only slowly, never more than like 1 bubble a minute as a best guess, but the lid (it's in a bucket) is bowed up from internal pressure. The reading as of tonight was 1.014, which only puts it at like 2.5%. Is it just going slow and I should leave it alone for another week, or should I start to consider adding more yeast?
The beer was 80% kit, with extra additions of mash and extract to give it some more flavor/abv, but that also means the yeast was kit.
thanks!
