[ygerchman]

i brewing an amber lager.
the first call of hydrometer was 1.060

i shaked it once a day for the last 3 days and i can see a lot of bubbles.

Since lagers ferment at cooler temps,it's my understanding that you have to pitch more yeast to get it going normally.

If I read your post right: You started fermentation at 10°C (50°F) for two weeks. Then you dropped the temperature to 4°C (39°F). How much yeast did you pitch? You may have underpitched the yeast and then dropped the temperature so suddenly the yeast went dormant.
