Hi. I brewed this pumpkin latte 10 days ago with all grain recipe. OG was supposed to be 1.062 but with my process not being too efficient yet I got 1.49. FG was supposed to be 1.016. When I got the pack of WLP002 it didn't look as good as others I have used from them. Looked kind of dark and expiration was next Sept 30. So not wanting to risk anything I got a new fresh pack of WP002 with expiration of Jan 3 2020 that looked right. At the end I pitched the new one and just in case half of the other one. Beer fermentation started in about 12-15hrs and seemed to ferment quickly with Krausen rising and dropping in about 3 days. Today I took a gravity measurement and it was 1.20. Usually my beers FG get to expected FG and most common 1-3 points lower. I think probably all is ok but not sure. Since many pitch new yeast when one doesn't work I don't think the high FG is because of the not looking good yeast that I added. What do you think? It fermented at 65F up to today. Today I added a heater to get it to 70F to see if it waked up some yeast and drops FG a little.
