Have I got a stuck fementation

[TheCavanMan]

Guys

Just wondering what I should do?

New to brewing, drove down to HomeBrewWest on saturday and pickup a load of equipement and kits.

Saturday evening I put on two batch of beer, St. Peter Red Ale and a Coopers Brewmaster Irish Stout.
Sunday morning both where fermenting away happily, the stout was going like a train.

This morning, the stout had completely stopped, not a bubble in the whole day. This evening I took a
gravity reading and it was 1.022 (OG 1.037)

What do I need to do, I know I should wait longer which is cool but is there something I need to order
in the event it is a stuck brew. As I don't live near any homebrew store I will need to ordered it online
and would like to do that early rather than wait to order it when I check the gravity in a couple of days.

I used the Cooper's kit with 1.5kg LME (their own brand).

Thanks a million

PS. The St. Peter Red Ale is still bubbling away nicely, both are in the same room etc.

This is not unusual. Take out the airlock and give the fermenter a good thorough shake, put airlock back and wait. Two weeks is good.

Assuming that your temperature remained fairly stable, normally when this happens to me it's because of the seal in the FV.
If the yeast was going well before you're safe enough to assume that it's still fine.
you could just leave it, no bothers.
But I usually take the lid off and give it a rinse with boiling water (to make it softer and wet) and lid it up again.
I also remove the airlock and grommit and wet them up before putting them on in case of leaks there.
Finally, once the FV is all sealed up again I give it a gentle swirl to get some of the co2 out of the liquid to blanket the beer. Don't worry about kicking up the yeast, it's early days and it will all settle down again
