Hi guys
Im brewing a woodfordes Headcracker kit
The kit makes 26 pints of strong pale ale.
OG was 1062
Target FG is 1020
Its been in the fermenter for a week and has been going well.
I fully intend leaving it another week but I took a hydro reading and it was at 1030. What do you think the chances are of it coming down to 1020 in the next week, kit says it ferment should be done in 5-7 days?
Should I shake it, pitch more yeast or leave it?
I'm not to worried if I lose a bit of the strength from not reaching the TG but i'm going to be bottling this batch and don't want 26 grenades in the cupboard under the stairs
