Hello,
I made a Triple IPA and got an OG of 1.102. This was brewed on 3/12.
It has still be slowly bubbling and I just took a gravity reading and it is at 1.040. Still slowly bubbling.
This is the biggest beer i ever made. I am hoping it ferments down to 1.020.
Here is my question. Saturday will be 3 weeks....does 1.040 seem about right for 3 weeks? (i read fermentation slows down as alcohol goes up).
I know to not worry about the bubbling and to take gravity readings, just was curious of your thoughts if you brewed something this big before.
I used a big starter of WLP001 and it has been about 65 degrees.
Thanks
