Brewed a Schwarzbier with the following recipe.
http://www.brewmasterswarehouse.com/recipe/8bbebaa3/
Ued the following Mash schedule
131 10 minutes
145 30 minutes
157 30 minutes
Sparge 168 10 minutes
OG was 1.060 and fermented @ 50* for 6 days and then.....POWER OUTAGE.
Fermentation fridge power was off for 24 hours and rose up to 74*
Once power came back on it cooled it back down to 50* over the next 8 hours or so.
Transferred to keg for lagering on Saturday after 3 weeks of primary and it finished @ 1.022.
Did it finish? Tasted it and it was a bit sweet but NO off-flavorings such as astringency or popcorn.
I plan to lager for 3 months before bottling.
BAD/ GOOD? Did it finish?
