I brewed this Nut Brown ale last week and the recipe had the target OG = 1.054, FG = 1.015, IBUs = 18, Alcohol 5.3% by volume. My OG was 1.052 and when I transferred it to the secondary it was 1.005! Any ideas why the gravity would drop so rapidly? It was fermented at about 64 degrees for 6 days with normal activity.
