Hi guys new to the forum here
I got a coopers lager brew kit for christmas.
So I did everything according to the instructions.
My question is about the alcohol content.
On first try my Original gravity was 1.04.
on day 6 it says test it again. it was 1.025, and very similar again today on day 7.
When I do the calculations online it says the beer will be around 2.6% a very low % beer...
Should I leave it longer or bottle it? The temperature has only been hovering around 17-18 degrees for the past few days. Does the temperature need to come up next time I do this? or is there any more alcohol % increase when I bottle it?
Thanks for the help!
I look forward to doing some stuff without the kit. So I am glad I am learning some stuff with this pre-bought kit.
