I brewed a Vienna Lager recipe on Thurs night 12/10. After wort cooled enough to take a gravity measurement, I was at 1.058 with a 4 gallon quantity. I wanted to maximize keg space (5 gal) but wanted to keep gravity at least 1.052. I added 16oz amber malt extract and 1 gal filtered water after the boil. After stirring profusely, SG measured 1.054, great right.
Not....after pitching White Labs Mex Lager and aerating, I still have almost no visible activity (glass carboy/airlock, krausen). Did the post boil malt extract addition ruin the fermentation ?
