So i just bottled my first partial mash and the readings I'm getting are strange. my OG was 1.053 which was a little high for my style (blonde ale) but i didn't think anything of it. I pitched my wyeast American ale smack pack and sat it in my closet to ferment.
I let it sit for a week and then transfered to secondary. It sat there for 2 weeks until i got consistant gravity readings.
but here's the thing. it fermented down to 1.008. thats a 6.XX% beer!
Did I just get really good efficiency? My yeast was only about a week old, so did it just do that well? Is this beer a freak of nature that will give me super powers?
