Fermentation seems to have stalled

[Ron Kaiser]

So I brewed last night. It’s mostly a base I’ve used before for a saison, but I used liquid yeast instead of dry yeast. It started to ferment but I noticed this afternoon it slowed down and seems to have stalled. I do have a couple packets of dry Kviek Yeast, should I throw a pack in and see if that starts it up again

How do you know it's stalled? Usually I give a mead 3 days of similar gravity readings before I start to get concerned. Do you have dates on the liquid yeast packet? OG? Current gravity. Kviek will totally finish it out regardless.

Scratch that, it’s going good now

For future reference if you get a stalled ferment…

The other questions might be:
What temp was the fermenter at?
What was starting gravity?
Did you make a starter/use an appropriate pitching rate?

Depending on those answers you might try different things to get it going.
