Hi all,
Brewed a Stout and after about 10 days the gravity was about 1.020. We transfered to secondary, and even though it bubbled a bit the FG after another week and a half was still about 1.019-20. We ended up bottleing anyway. Here is to hoping that there will be no bottle bombs. Specs to follow.
Predicted OG: 1.055 Actual: 1.052
Predicted FG: 1.016 Actual: 1.019-20
4KG (8.88lbs) Marris Otter
1.2KG (2.6lbs) Flaked Barley
.9kg (2lbs) Roasted Barley
White Labs British Ale
Mashed around 151F
We had the room temperature around 66F . Could it be that the large amount of Flaked Barley kept our FG up higher that we expected?
Thanks for any input!
