Hello. Any input on this would be very appreciated. I just started to get into distilling and have done all my cleaning runs and also a TPW run for my sacrificial run. On to what was going to be my first real run which I decided to do a sweet feed mash (link below).

My OG was very low I though at 1.052. As it listed one packet of yeast I thought it wouldn't hurt to add a little more so I did add 2 tbsp's in total of distiller's yeast. Fermentation took off well (68 degree environment) and I left it for two weeks. Action on the air lock stopped after about four days. When I checked SG yesterday I got a reading of 1.020. Gave it a big stir and popped the lid back on, bubbled a tiny amount for a bit then nothing. Last night I moved it to a warmer area (72 degrees) and checked this morning..no action. I am not sure now if I should add a little yeast nutrient to try to kick start it or something else went wrong. I did not cook the mash. Any thoughts?
