So I just finished a hoppy amber extract brew with and OG 1.056 and was hoping for a FG of 1.012 or 1.011 which would be in the high 70% for attenuation. Ended up with 1.015/1.016(my hydrometer's tough to read) which is in the low 70's for attenuation.
It was fermented with california ale yeast WLP001 at between 64* and 66*F. Had a very good early fermentation(had a mini blow out). Left in the primary for 3 weeks. Dry hopped for 5 days then cold crashed for 5 days at 36* before bottling today.
The beer smells and looks awesome, tastes a little too sweet for what I was going for.
Thoughts?
Let me know if I need to supply any more information
Thanks
