A gentle stir didnt do anything. I havent any dme or any of the brupaks dry beer enzyme stuff so ive made a starter up this morning with some Gervin ale yeast, hoping it will do the trick.
When i stated the brew the other week it didnt seem to create alot of foam like some other brews ive seen on here I.m thinking i didnt aerate it enough?

Mine got down to 1015.
The instructions set a target of about 1010 I think. This is a little low in my opinion since:
1. It is a 3.6 kg kit.
2. It is a dark kit.
Mine tasted great at 1015...son don't worry. It'll be fine.
Let me know how you added the hops. I dry hopped after 7 days in the fermenter and left it for another 7 days.
This was one of my best kits yet. I just wished that I'd saved a few bottles.

Cheers fellas, if it hasnt dropped by tonight then ill start bottling it tomorrow.
I fished most of then out with a sanitised sieve the other day while trying to get the beer fermenting again. Next time i think i would just pitch them all into the boiling water
Theres a few bubbles on the surface(but not many) so i assume something is happening
I'll keep ya posted on how it turns out
I put about 2/3 of the hops into about 200ml of boiling water, left for a bout 15 mins then added this to the wort when it had cooled(about day 7 i think) I also added the remaing 1/3 straight into the FV at the same time, sorry i did this tbh since they have brocken up and just float about making my beer look C**pLet me know how you added the hops.

Just a quick update.
May have dropped down a bit to 1015 but its hard to tell, still fermenting since every now and then a buble or two is produced through the airlock(allready fitted to fv)
The starting hg was about 1046 so i think it may be abit weak(4% instead of 5.2 as per instructions) if it only stops at 1016-1015. So i think ill persist for a bit, I've also ordered some spraymalt and dry beer enzyme so might use those if need be. Unless ive had enough by the weekend and just bottle it up
