I would say if you have a week to spare and you know the temp for secondary was only around 55 degrees then I say move to where you know it will be 65 degrees or so and give it a week. Maybe its just me but I don't like adding in a second yeast after I have pitched another one. I think 7 days and a warmer environment will help bring your FG down.I think the one thing I should haven mentioned is that the 2ndary was kept in a room that was a little chilly. I didnt notice until after a week but the GF had strung an extension cord through the window for the outside xmas lights and it was probably around 55 in there. In the last few days i brought the temp of the carboy up but no activity. I agree with you NC, the other 2 batches I made with it fermented a little more in the 2ndary...but since it was cooler it might have not gotten the chance....I might go ahead and add some 05 in there and see what happens....if there are no more fermentables then it wont do any harm...if there are then it will come down and I have some malto dextrin to add to keep the body where i want it.
