    Low FG cause and effects

    Yeah. If he wanted to restart fermentation....I’d rack wort to a new fermenter & pitching a fresh batch of yeast. I wouldn’t since his gravity is already low at 1.002.

    Low FG cause and effects

    Don’t add any DME after fermentation. You can add another package/vial of yeast if you want to try & restart fermentation if you want too. I just know my wheat beer usually ferments out in 3-4 days. If you had taken a OG before adding yeast....you could’ve added some Light DME until you reached...

    Low FG cause and effects

    Wheat beers will usually ferment out fast. I will let my wheat beer go in the primary for at least a week (I notice no bubbling after like 3-4 days. Thought it was stuck the 1st time I brew a wheat beer) & transfer to secondary for another week. My guess is (that since you were in a hurry &...

    Low FG cause and effects

    First problem is crushing your grains with a rolling pin. This will cause an OG/SG to be off. Secondly, Don’t top off with water if you don’t know your OG. Only top off with water if your OG is high & you want to lower it. I used to come up short until I learned my System. Do you use Brewing...

It may not be the best beer you’ve made but should still be drinkable. Hell, I brewed a ipa that hit 4.9 & turned out great. Like Silver said you prob didn’t...

    Testing my tap water

    Here's my water report from Ward Labs. Everything looked within reason but the bicarbonate is soooo high. Looks like a may be investing in a RO system in the future. As of now I'll buy RO water from store to brew with. Even diluting it won't bring me down enough

    Ward Labs received my sample. So I should be getting the report back in a day or so. Thx for all the info. I've read some of your articles, ajdelange, on Brewing water chemistry l. Great info for someone like me who didn't pay attention during chemistry class lol.

    Testing my tap water

    I just moved into my new house & was told by previous owners that the water was hooked up to a water softener. I actually did a little investigating the other day & found out that only the hot water is hooked to the water softener.

    A Brewing Water Chemistry Primer
