Hi there! I've been brewing beer for over a year now, but I seem to be having issues with my most recent batch. I brewed a Cherry Amber Ale with a North American yeast on Friday, November 13th, and it's been sitting in the fermenter for a week.
This is the first time I haven't seen bubbles in the airlock forming on its own. When I push the lid down, there are bubbles and they keep going for about 5-10 minutes, and there's that awesome yeast smell, but no bubbles on its own!
I opened it up yesterday and noticed a thick film of yeast on the top, which looked really good, but I didn't see any active bubbling. I gave it a good stir, closed the lid and placed the airlock again.
Still, no bubbles on its own, although the film of yeast has formed again on the top.
What should I do? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
