For my first big batch of beer i decided to brew a big beer. By big batch i mean 5 gallons (I upgraded from a Mr Beer after making a few non-kit master pieces that everyone loved). My OG was 1.090 and now after 30+ days in the primary I've been stuck at 1.035. I didnt do a starter, but I did pitch two vials of yeast. On the plus side, it tastes amazing (everyone that has tasted it agrees). I'm worried that if I bottle I will have some bombs just waiting to go off causing a mess of beer and glass. I tried a half of a beano to see if that'd lower the gravity at all, it dropped zero points.
I started brewing later at night not realizing i was out of Irish moss so i do have some stuff floating, fortunately it is a dark beer. Could i have so much particulate from the steeping grains that my gravity is high?
