8 days in and my AG stout is stuck at 1.025. It started at 1.55 and I mashed at an average of 153F so I was expecting to get to 1.015 minimum.
7lb 2-row
1lb Flaked Barley
1lb Flaked Oats
1lb Crystal 80
.75 Black Barley
.5 Crystal 120
It tastes pretty good but a little too sweet.
This was the batch that made me think rehydrating dry yeast(Nottingham) is definitely better than dry pitching. I moved the carboy to warmer areas, about 70 ambient and I'm not getting anything.
Repitch? Is this stuff too sweet for even a sweet stout?
