All Grain Mash Stuck- Need Advice

Post by DocWhiskey »

Hope everyone is enjoying some extra time to distill due to Covid. I am looking for some advice/help on a stuck all grain mash. Fermenting off the grain:

SG: 1.100, PH about 5 -- 6 gallons after sparge

Bill:
7# Flaked Maize
4# Rye Malt
3# Flake Barley
3# Distillers Malt
2# Biscuit Malt
4# Raw Sugar
7 gram DADY and starter

Stuck at 1.010 and PH about 6 --- I did let it get down to about 60-65* but no luck restarting after 24 hours at 80 degrees

I do have some LC 1118 but wanted to see other suggestions as i've never really had one stick like this.

I've made this before and had it go to slightly to 1.000 but was concerned about any extra sugars/ proteins causing puking. I guess i'll run er low n slow to be sure. Getting hard to find yeast so didn't want to waste any extra.

Save the trub at the bottom ferment tank and you don't need to worry about buying yeast. :D
