I need some advise please.
Made a lager beer 7 days ago in a conical fermenter (Fast Ferment) and the gasket fell in while I was screwing the cap on. I could never get the air lock to raise. About 72 hours in I decided to remove the top and wrapped the threads with teflon tape, it worked for 1 day then airlock did not raise. The next day I fished out the gasket and could see the bubbles in the airlock for 10 hours then airlock went down, no activity. 7 days later still no activity with gasket intact. Did my batch go bad? Is there anything I can do at this point to revive it?
Thanks
