Hello all
Receipe
10 lbs 2 row
8 lbs otter
.5 lbs carapils
.5lbs cry 120
1 lbs flaked barley
1 lbs brown sugar
2 oz summit 60 min
1 oz chinook 30 min
1 oz german perle 10 min
wlp 028 yeast cake
For some reason after my 90 min mash my temp ended at 160 degrees. Worried that I had too many unfermentables, I added 2 lbs of DME at the start of my boil.
I ended up with an OG of 1.090, and after 2 weeks I am at 1.034
The samples taste great, but I would like for my fg to be lower, and I am not sure how to go about getting my fg lower. I have been researching using beano, but I have read a lot of negative results. I am really just looking for a higher abv, but I am worried that adding some extra fermentables may make the batch too sweet or too dry. Should I just leave it be, or does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA
