I’m a bit puzzled. I’ve been brewing for several years and have never had a stalled fermentation, but I think that is what I’m dealing with here.
I pitched yeast Sunday morning. I ferment in this King Junior with a blowoff tube attached and at no point has there been any bubbling. I have pulled up the pressure relief valve a few times and nothing comes out. The only sign of fermentation is the very thin krausen.
This is a 3.5 gallon 1.054. OG Dunkel. I used a good dose of yeast nutrient and 2 packs of M76 Bavarian lager yeast. I pitched at about 60F and have kept it at 50F since.
Is this normal? Should I ramp up the temperature 5-6 degrees? Pitch another pack of yeast?
