Hey all,
This is my third batch ever and my second batch using the Tilt Hydrometer (meaning I can post a live graph of the beer for you to look at below). It's been 36 hours without a change in gravity and I'm starting to wonder if my fermentation is stuck.
Here's a link to the live graph of the beer: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet...rY/pubchart?oid=1890832659&format=interactive
My question is, when do I call this thing stuck and try to fix it? Is it better to wait, or just say screw it and start making my starter to kickstart this thing again.
Recipe for reference:
Cavalier Cream Ale
Amount Item Type % or IBU
1.82 lb Briess Gold DME
1.75 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain
