First hombebrew and scratching my head over fermenting. I used a midwest kit cream ale with wyeast American ale yeast. Followed directions on kit as well as referencing John palmers how to brew. Pitched yeast at 70 degrees and within 24 hrs it was rolling away and bubbled like crazy for about 4 days. It has been kept in my den with a consistent temp of 66. been in primary 16 days. Problem is my hydrometer reading has been 1.020 for 3 days in a row. Kit instructions stated FG should be within 1.010-1.012. All the krausen has settled and no real signs of active fermenting. Is she done or has it stalled out? I know the consistency of hydrometer says it is but just wondering why he readings are so high. Any comments much appreciated. Beer taste pretty good bye the way
