My brother and law and I made a high gravity IIPA 1.12 sg. We pitched 1040 and it chewed it down to 1.047 and completely pooped out on us. I tried everything to get it to finish nothing So I pitched white labs super high gravity yeast to get fermantation going again with the thought that i would monitor gravity. In 36 hrs it took it down to 1.02 so i decided to rack it and then cold crash it to get the yeast to drop out. I put it in my lager freezer kicked my controller down to 29 F 24 hrs later the beer still had krausen on the top and was clearly still going I had no choice but to filter and keg. Even lager yeast would have dropped out at that temp so I began thinking it must be infection, but the beer tastes great I mean not the greatest beer ive made but good nonetheless.
