I put up a pilsner Urquell, boiled the mash by accident but it still has good smell and taste, partial grain. It's been 5 weeks and the spec gravity is 1.012
this is according to the gauge about 2.5% alchohol. What do you think went wrong. I used a good pilsner yeast and when I transfered it to the secondary fermenter there was a lot of crud on top of the wort. I don't think if fermented. I sat and watched on day for about 2 hrs and only saw it bubble once. Is there anything I can do to bring it up? I think the Alc % should be around 5.
My first reading right after I put it in the fermenter was 1.042
