I recently brewed a brown ale and it picked up and started fermenting in just a couple hours. It appeared to have finished within 3 days but the gravity is stuck at 1.024. I started trying to revive it about a week ago. First I swirled the carboy to try and rouse some more yeast and have been maintaining the temp around 65F. Its now been about a week and a half since I brewed it and as of yesterday it was still 1.024. Yesterday I dumped an old expired dry yeast package I had into a little water and boiled it for a couple minutes to kill all the yeast and put that into the carboy as a yeast nutrient because I've heard dead yeast is a good nutrient. I also swirled the carboy again to try and rouse the yeast up again. I was wondering if that doesn't work if there are any other ideas on how to get this beer going again? I would hate to see this beer go to waste or have bottle bombs because I bottled a beer with too high a gravity. Thanks.
