Hi all,
i'm trying to ferment one of my first batches after some discrete ciders and wines.
The problem is: the mash/lauter tun I made is brand new and so i can just exitmate my efficiency and i really forgot to take down OG on the brew day.
The beer was fermented warm and did vigorous ferm on days 1-2, but slowed down and stopped now (day 4).
Actual gravity is very high 1.060 and looking in my glass carboy I can't see foam, but i see crumbs of material that I suspect is yeast. Tasting the beer is obviusly sweet and little to none alcholic.
About the high ferm temps, i know, but can't do anything better. Wyeast specs set the yeast from 21 to 35°C, so I... was... pretty relaxed on this.
Please, have you have some hints how to restart this?
