If it stops in a few days consider warming it a few degrees....it started back up with me when I did this.

Yeah, my fermentation went quick at first in a water bath to hold lower fermentation temps. After 2wks I moved it to the counter to bottle the next morning and fermentation started back up and bubbled slowly for another week. I let it sit another week to clear up. When I use it again I’ll...

I bottled my Huell Melon/Wheat brew done with S-33....it’s a very tasty brew going into the bottle. It almost tasted like a pineapple/melon NEIPA....can’t wait for it to bottle condition. The Brix dropped another 8.5 from last report.
