I've searched through many stuck fermentation threads and didn't find what I was looking for so that is why I am posting Stuck Fermentation thread #958494....
I have an Alt that is stuck at 1.030 after two weeks. I took off the blow off today to take a reading, and it was bubbling every 8 seconds beforehand. It was 1.030. Now the new airlock is bubbling every 30 seconds (down from 8 probably due to gases being released when I switched airlocks). I know bubbling is no indication of fermentation being or not being done, but should I wait a couple of days and take another reading or repitch a starter since its been 2 weeks and the likelihood of a stuck fermentation is high?
OG was 1.058 and I used WLP 036....
Cheers
