Did you still prime with carbonating drops or have you not bothered with priming?

Sorry to hear that, hopefully it'll come right during carbonating and conditioning. I'll take a reading on Friday and see if its dropped. If not then I'll be bottling mine then aswell athumb.. It's on 14 days today anyway.

How are you getting on with your stout? Have you managed to get it going again? Mine dropped to 1.018 then stayed there for the last 3 days. So I raised the temperature to between 23 and 24 yesterday morning and have just given it a gentle stir this morning. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞

Thought I would try this tonight 😁 athumb..:beer1:

I've got a St. Peter's cream stout that's ready for the bottle in the next few days. I agree with @GhostShip that stouts aren't meant to be fizzy. I was planning on putting just under half a teaspoon of granulated sugar into each bottle as I haven't got carbonation drops. I put a rounded half...

Same as @Clint , I had a dodgy text yesterday saying my PayPal account is suspended and to follow the link to validate my account. I logged in through the app and all was ok.
