So I brewed a pale ale 13 days ago.
OG 1.049.
Mashed a little high 68C which is around 154f.
Fermenting with WLP095.
Pitched at 18C (64f)
Raised temp to 19C (66f) and upped the temperature 0.5C (1f) for 4 days.
Went mad to start with and was down to 1.025 in 2.5 days.
After a week it was 1.020 and that's where it stopped.
I made a new starter and pitched at high krausen (day 10), nothing happened.
So yesterday I roused the yeast and added 1 teaspoon of amylase enzyme (day 12).
24 Hours later no change, so I have roused the yeast again.
Am starting to think I should cold crash and keg if nothing has happened by tomorrow.
Any ideas on what's going on and where I messed up?
