ok i am not freakin out. it has been almost a week and my stout has only gone from 1.040 to 1.020. i used danstar windsor (first time using) and used a whole pack or 2.25 gallon batch and my supposed FG is 1.010-1.012. my recipe was basic 65% MO 25% flaked barley and 10% roasted barley. it has been fermenting at around 64F the whole time. should i pitch some reserve yeast or just relax. oh and the hydro samples tasted pretty bad ass. i know that every batch fermentation is different but 90% of my beers have hit the FG after the first week the other 10% in the first 3-4 days (i love notty). thanks
 
RDWHAHB. you cant declare a fermentation stuck based on just one SG reading. wait a few days and take another SG reading. if its fallen then you still have fermentation going on.
