I added yeast energizer to my power pills will this help or hurt

[Joshua Graham]

I berwed this pillsner about two weeks ago It was one of these prehopped Glen brew kits and went like an animal in primary Once i switched two secoundary it slowed way down on week #two it had stoped so i added yeast energizer it took off and now im wondering can i do the same with my german oktoberfest a brewers best kit i started nine days ago and it also stoped in secoundary or should i wait it out

it's supposed to stop fermenting sometime around 7-10 days... i'm not sure what's in yeast energizer. have you been checking gravities when racking and deciding to add energizer? i wouldn't recommend adding energizer to the oktoberfest...just "wait it out"
relax...the process takes time

no i didnt check the gravity People who make mead add energizer every week or so to get alcohol up to20% plus This pillsner kit was old came out dark and the taste was off So i didnt mind trying something diferent Your right i think i will wait it out

your wort contains nutrients that a mead don't. This is why energizer is added to mead. After primary is done and wort is in secondary, then you don't need to add anything more to get the yeast working. It is finished.

check the gravity and compare it with the expected gravity from the kit's instructions. If it's the same or close, you are done. no need to add crap to a good beer.
