Making an Imperial Stout and the kit can with champagne yeast to add when transfering to the secondary. I left in the primary 2+ weeks and fermentation was done. Transferred to the secondary and just dropped in the package of dry yeast.
It did little as far as I can tell and only dropped the FG by a point or two down to 1.030 from original of 1.085 in the past 2 weeks.
Should I have rehydrated? Made a starter?
I'm thinking about dropping in more Champagne yeast but doing a starter first since I've still got a couple of months before bottling.
Any advice or thoughts about using a starter vs rehydrating vs adding dry?
