Ya I saw your reply on the deception stout recipe-thread. Ya I did my 8 oz lactose during the boil. Next time I think I'm just going to do the addition when I bottle. Did you end up using the 1084 Irish ale yeast?

Ok so I decided to pitch another starter and I did another hydro today and I'm down to 1021! Don't think I'll get much lower. Thanks for your suggestions

Sippin on a pint at this very moment. This was my second batch of brew and im stoked about how well it turned out! Only been in the bottle for 2 weeks and it's fantastic. Can't wait to see how much better it will be over the next couple weeks. Didn't have any carapils so I did 4oz of...

Ok so I've taken two reading over the last two days. It dropped down to 1026. Its been fermenting now for two weeks. I moved it into my furnace room which is about 70 degrees ambient temperature and have been swirling the carboy every so often. Options? Pitch more yeast or not worry about it...

Today I took a sample of the Deception Cream Stout (see recipe below) and the hydrometer read 1.030. The OG was 1.052. Its been in the primary...
