sugar mash keeps stalling!!!
Okay I tried a couple of test batches of the sugar mash reciepe on here using bakers yeast (I used bob's red mill baking yeast) and plant fertilizer, epsom salts, citric acid, multivitamins, etc. This started out fine only it went REALLY slow taking like 3-4 weeks now and I'm on my 3rd course of repitching yeast and nutrient. it runs for about a week and then just stops. Today it just stopped again and I thought "okay maybe it's finally done" so I dropped the triple scale hydrometer into the bucket and it shows 1.026 sg still! WTF! My mash is at a constant 70deg. F and this is the last time I'm going to waste my time on this reciepe. Sticking with turbo yeasts from now on.
