slow ferment with UJSM

[ufo8mycow]

I am on my second ferment with my ujsm and it is taking forever same as the first on did. In the recipe uncle Jesse says it will ferment for 4 days but my first one took 11 and I am on day 9 of the second and it is still going. I used lalvin ec-1118 which was recommended by the local home brew shop. I have it in my basement furnace room which stays at between 70 and 75. is there somthing I can do diffrent or is this just really slow yeast?

1st i would warm it up a bit if you can to say 85'f or 30'c and give it a small stir to get the yeast floating aorund and see what happens

under 75 is getting cool

The other thing to do if you are waiting on ferments (after you get your temp issuses sorted) is to have another one going at the same time. Better to have the ferments waiting on you 8-)

Also make sure you aerate the shit out of it before pitching the yeast so they have something to eat.
