Howdy folks,
Working on my 1st 5 gal coming off mr. beer, and am getting a tad concerned on day 13 of fermentation here.
Unadjusted for temperature, my OG was 1.052. sounded ok to me.
Today (day 13) I'm getting 1.022.
I looked at just about all the recipes over on hbd.org, and I don't see anything w/ FG above 1.018.
I made a satellite bottle w/ sample brew day, and that's where I got the 1.052 from. A week later I got 1.020 from the bottle sample, but now I'm getting 1.022 from the ferm bucket sample.
First week the bucket was hovering around mid 70's (on top of heater), then I moved it to the floor, where it's now hovering around 65.
1.022 seems kinda high to me. I can take another sample tomorrow and see what's doing, but based on the satellite reading I took several days ago, I don't expect to see much movement.
Krausen is gone, just some white clumps floating on surface.
Thoughts?
