Okay, so I'm making 2 gallons of root beer. 2 gallons water, 4 cups table sugar. Half a package of Windsor Yeast (which I shared with 2 1/2 gallon batch of Pilsner). Two weeks in the gravity is 1.046 (the Pilsner is also high at 1.016 but that's within the realm of possibility). So what do I do? Pitch yeast again?
Also the Pilsner from extract may not have mixed thoroughly. When I transferred to fermentor there was thick, about a cup, layer of syrup at the bottom of the kettle. Does that affect things? I didn't notice any such with the root beer but as that was water at room temperature with sugar added it's highly likely it wasn't thouroughly mixed
