I haven't used WLP007 Dry English Ale in a long time. I don't remember it looking like cottage cheese. My starter looks nasty but it's fermenting so nothing to worry about I hope.
Last night to try and get this thing to finish I used one more vial and made a starter (first time, I hope I did it right). About 2 hours after I pitched the yeast I still didn't see any signs of fermentation. The Wort has been at a temperature of about 70 the whole time.
Any ideas to correct this would be appreciated, plus I don't ever want this to happen again.
Has anyone had any problems with a stuck fermentation using WLP007?
I brewed a Winter Warmer ale that had a high OG of 1.072. After two weeks in the primary it was only down to 1.044 I pitch two vials (without using a starter) because of the high OG. the FG was supposed to be 1.018.

terrapinj said:have you tried rousing the yeast? it can floc out early - usually at lower temps which isn't an issue for you but still may be worth gently rousing
