Hey everyone,
My first attempt at a partial mash was the Oaked Imperial Whiskey Stout from AHS. Here's the recipe:
5# Dark LME
5# Munich LME
1# 2-Row Malt
1# Munich Malt
8 oz. Brown Malt
8 oz. Coffee Malt
4 oz. Black Patent Malt
8 oz. Flaked Barley
2 oz. Nugget hops (60 min)
1 oz. Cluster hops (30 min)
1 0z. Willamette hops (15 min)
2.5 oz. Light Toast Whiskey Barrel Oak Chips (in secondary after fermentation completed in primary)
375 mL. Maker's Mark Whisky (in tertiary after desired "oakiness" is achieved in secondary)
Wyeast 1084 Irish Ale (Made starter to make 300 billion buddies)
Expected OG: 1.087 (nailed it!)
Expected FG: 1.020 (not there yet)
Brewed on March 3, and has been in primary at ~65* since. I checked the gravity last Sunday (March 19) and yesterday (March 25) and measured 1.024 both times. I was always planning on leaving in primary until April 3, so it still has a little time left.
Has the fermentation completed a little high? Is it worth repitching?
Cheers and many thanks,
Jarod
