I have my second batch in a plastic fermenter now for one week. My bubbling in the airlock lasted about one day but I think my temp was too high (as high as 80 during the hot afternoons). This high temp situation lasted about 3 days until I figured out a solution (i moved a window a/c unit in the room and now it's staying about 64 degrees) Now. This moring I took a hydro reading - 1.02 and it's been a week. I plan on leaving it one more week in the primary before bottling. Should I repitch yeast or not worry about it. I suppose when I take the final reading next Sat, I could re-pitch then and wait a 3rd week if it's still not any closer to the FG I'm shooting for. The OG was about 1.05 and I'm looking for the FG to be 1.012. Thanks
