This is odd for me. I use a Firmzilla55L 11 gal batches. Probably 40 batches in this same fermenter.
Mostly IPA with same gravity numbers. Most beers finish by 7-12 days.
Once visual fermentation seems to look dying down I add a spunding valve and add natural pressure (for cold crashing later). This one has been building up 10 psi every 12 hours from about day 12 to day 24. I should have taken a picture but the beer looks nice and flat. No signs of infection, but I have never had one before. Maybe i should taste it but I don't know what to taste for.
This was a harvested slurry (white labs english ale 2nd gen). It was a little slow to start. Around 30 hours. But it took off nicely and seemed to start finishing off after 3-4 days. But it keeps building pressure 2 weeks after initial fermentation seemed to finish off (visually). I haven't taken i reading. I guess I should build it keeps building pressure each day. Never had anything like this happen before.
