if that’s the case then a couple of tsp of alpha amylase might help. Give it a couple of weeks if you try it

Is there software that accounts for fermentability from mash temp now?
The free recipe calculator at Brewer's Friend does this, but I'm not really sure how well. But I'd be surprised if most of the more customizable programs didn't.
I use a paid subscription for Brewers Friend. Could have gone with Brewfather and there’s Beer Smith too

BrewCipher uses Grain Bill, Mash Temp, Mash Length, and Yeast Strain to predict fermentabilty. BeerSmith uses all of these except grain bill.
I didn’t have high hopes for this but it appears to be working. Added a tsp of amylase powder to the fermenter (10gallons) on 1/12. Tilt had been at .012 for two weeks, went up to .013 on day 2, now day 7 pressure has risen 6psi and it’s reading .010.
