I brewed up an IPA two Saturdays ago (12 Days) using WLP001 that had an OG of 1.062 and I needed the carboy to brew this weekend so I transfered it to a secondary (also dry hopping). But when i checked the gravity, it was still 1.032. It seems to me my gravity is always pretty close to my estimated final gravity after this amount of time.
I am wonder if this could be a sign i underpitched. I did make a yeast starter but the yeast starter went crazy and overflowed so i had a nice layer of yeast on my bathroom counter (but still seemed like a good amount in the bottom of the flask).
Also, do would it be a bad idea to reuse the yeast at the bottom of the primary for my next batch, that was my original plan.
Thanks,
Ian
