I made this kit three weeks ago. http://www.greatfermentations.com/downloads/instructions/beerkits/TidalStoutAG.pdf
12 lbs. Maris Otter Malt
1.5 lbs. Simpson’s Dark Crystal Malt
1.0 lb. Crystal 10L Malt
1.0 lb. Flaked Oats
1.0 lb. White Wheat Malt
0.5 lb. Chocolate Malt
0.5 lb. Carafa III Malt
1.0 oz. Galena hops, added at the beginning of the 60 minute boil
0.5 oz. Columbus hops, added at the beginning of the 60 minute boil
1.0 oz. Cascade hops, added 10 min from the end of the boil
1.0 oz. Columbus hops, added 10 min from the end of the boil
I pitched a 2L starter with 3 yeast packs, and the airlock took off like a cat out of a box for 3 days before simmering down.
My OG was 1.078 (65-70% brewhouse efficiency)
After three weeks my gravity is at 1.032. The recipe says I should be sitting from 1.016 to 1.020
Is this close enough the be accounted for brewer error, or is fermentation not done yet?
