Hi all. My Northern Brewer Block Party Amber Ale is on day 11 of fermentation. The original gravity of the wort was 1.032 which was lower than the 1.042 projected on the recipe sheet and some attributed that to me not stirring or shaking up the mixture after adding 1 1/2 gallons to equal the 5. Today the hydrometer reading was 1.002, which using the projected OG gives me a 5.25% ABV, but a 3.94% on the actual readings. Can I pretty much call it done? Most of the "foam" is gone from the surface and it smells good.
