So I finally did my first homebrew (!) and did an Extract Amber Ale. Received the kit, and it slipped my mind to put the yeast in the refrigerator after receiving it. It sat on my kitchen table for about a week, before I used it in the brew.
My brew did not start to ferment for about 36 hours or more, and then fermented for 3 days or so and then I did not see any more noticeable signs of fermentation. I am worried I have bad yeast, by my fault, and my beer is done.
Took a reading a week into it and FG is at 1.022 or so.
Thoughts?
PS--I am not obsessed with brewing and it is taking over my life.
That is all!
Thanks
