So this is my first brew(and first post!) and I feel like i did everything correctly except 2 things. I dont know that i aerated the brew well enough, and i dont think i did a good enough job maintaining a good temperature, i think there was a night where my room mate left our patio door open and it may have dropped to 60F. never did i see my air lock bubble during the primary fermentation, when i transported it to the carboy after 6 days i did see some CO2 bubbles in the brew so i know there was SOME fermentation, but whats the deal? did my yeast die from getting too cold maybe? should i add more yeast? after being in the carboy for a day i would have to say that it looks pretty dormant. do you guys need any other info? should i smell it? taste it? get a S.G. reading?
-thanks in advance
