I’ve been cleaning with PBW and ensured there is no residue in the bottles, but rather than use StarSan in each bottle I’ve been sanitising in the oven (150C for 15 minutes and then let cool). I am a newbie to beer brewing though, but this has worked fine for me.
Thanks for the feedback. :)
I realise in retrospect that I should have used more yeast, but I'll chalk that down to learning experience.
There has appeared to be a little bit of activity the last couple of days, but I just took another reading and it's still stuck on 1.027. I'm now debating...
I am a new brewer (seven batches so far) and my latest brew is a coffee stout that is currently in the fermenter. When taking gravity readings, fermentation appears to have stopped at 1.027.
Do I still dare bottle the beer, or is this a recipe for a bottle bomb disaster?
Some more background...
