Im a new brewer and am on my 7th or 8 batch. Ive read in a few different places that your FG should typically be 20%-25% of the OG. Since reading this, Ive checked my notes and have found that other than 2 of my first 5 batches, the remaining 3 finished right around 40%-45% of the OG. Despite very little, if any at all, changes in gravity after 7-10 days of primary, I decided to bottle after 14-16 days. Should I wait longer even if I dont see any changes in readings from day 10 to day 16? Or, is 2 weeks not enough time for a simple extract brew?
