Ok,
OG: 1.050 -expected FG of 1.012 using same ingredients/yeast/temps as last batch.
Primary: 2 weeks @ 50F. I don't really lager - just primary and secondary @ about 50 and 45 F for a total of 4-5 weeks.
Heres the scenario:
I racked into secondary after giving a diacetyl rest for 2 days at 60F.
Now, one week later the gravity is 1.019.....I didnt measure the gravity when racking to secondary (I was in a rush) and I obviously didn't have the d-rest for enough time.
Right now, the beer is great tasting - no off flavours.
The question is : Should I do another diacetyl rest to bring down the FG - or should I just left it ferment out for another week or two?
Cheers.
