I made a AG Double Bastard Clone, OG 1.103 5 gallon batch.
My vial of WL California Ale V 051 was about a month past the best by date. Made a 1L 1.040 starter that i used a oxygen stone on, and swirled every now and then until done. Decanted and added another 1L 1.040, same steps.
When that was done I decanted and added it to 2L of oxygenated 1.103 Double Bastard wort for a day while the rest of my wort cooled down(no chill).
The next day i pitched the entire two liters into the wort, had great activity pretty quickly. Basement temps were pretty much 63F the entire time.
It's been a month and my FG is at 1.030, the recipe says FG should be around 1.026. should I rouse the yeast or call it good and transfer to secondary for aging? Still haven't decided on bottling or kegging. Thanks
