The last 7 or 8 batches that I have brewed have all stopped fermenting early and wound up way to sweet...from 1.024-1.035....I have been brewing for 8 years on and off..started having this prob last year.At first I blamed it on ferm temp.I corrected that.Then realized that I started having this prob after recieving a new thermometer after my other broke.Bought another floating therm today to do a side by side.Both read the same from a range of 34f to 160f..I have started eliminating variables that I considered the culprit,the last few batches,to no avail.I'm an all grain brewer that has made awesome beer consistently for years.This is making me crazyI'm mashing at 150 for 60 min.mash out 160-165 for 15 min.batch sparge at 160.boil for 60.ferment with wyeast 1099 at 70f or 1056 at 65f.I use starters for all my beer and aerate well..Ferm starts off within hours and goes strong for a week or so then stalls.Nothing has changed in my process over the years,other than my beer not finishing..
