I moved my Irish Mocha Stout into my secondary last night after a week in the primary. There hasn't been any real activity in the airlock for several days.
If I read my hydrometer correctly, my OG was 1.044. The SG was at 1.022 last night. This seems really low to me.
I put 4 ounces of cocoa nibs and about a cup or so of very strong, cold-brewed espresso in the bottom, which I understand shouldn't have much impact on my FG.
I did notice a little activity in the airlock last night (a bubble every couple minutes, maybe).
Should I add a bit of sugar to the secondary (how much?) to up the ABV or just wait it out a couple weeks and retest?
