I have a question regarding my honey brown ale. After pitching the yeast in the primary fermenter (a brew pail) and sealing it up, no airlock bubbling evidence of fermentation was observed after many days.
I then tried shaking the brew up over several hours and did get a very slow rate of bubbling for quite a few days. I am soon to move the honey brown from the primary to secondary fermenter (5 Gal. carboy). If the (FG) is not in the correct range, should I consider re-pitching the beer in the secondary fermenter?
The (OG) was 1.050. If re-pitching is an option, at what hydrometer reading should I decide to re-pitch?
