As much as i read this forum. Im calling out for advice.
Brewed up a pale ale 3 weeks ago. Pitched with safe ale 05 and everything went just fine. Put it into my ferm chamber and had it at 65-66 degrees with blow off tube. Three days go by and i check on it "i don't look as much as i used to when i stared". When i lifted the lid to the chamber i saw that i had pushed the grommet though the lid and my blow tube was just laying in the hole. No spare grommet and no way to put a air lock on it. I panicked and grabbed my secondary "glass" carboy and transferred to it. The pale ale still had the kurasun "sp".
I had a pack of Muttons from a kit. I used it to repitch. Today "3 weeks later" the yeast has fallen and i took a sample. Came in at 3.5% I wish i would have pitched another pack of 05.
Should i just leave it as is or would you pitch a pack of 05 on it ? There isn't no where near the amount of yeast sitting at the bottom as I'm used to seeing. It smelled and tasted good just weak.
What would you do ?
