Is there ever a good reason to stir the yeast at the bottom of the primary fermentor? I'm stuck at 1.02 after about 2.5 weeks in primary (and I'm planning to leave it another couple weeks in there), and a friend of mine advised stirring the yeast cake at the bottom with a sanitized rod to re-suspend the yeast and help get it going it again.
Now, I likely will not stir (like I said, I'm just going to wait more time), but the "advice" really got me wondering if there would ever be a case when stirring was a good idea.
