Fellow brewers,
I brewed an oatmeal stout (link to stout) from northern brewer a month ago. The recipe called for a OG of 1.049, which I hit, but it doesn't mention what the FG should end up at. I used the yeast 1098 British Ale, but I can't remember if I made a starter or not. I have brewed about 30 beers in my life in this was the first time I adjusted the recipe, but I only added 1LB of Lactose. For whatever reason My gravity it reading 1.022. I assume it should have fermented to 1.012 so for whatever reason my beer didn't fully ferment. Should I just keg and not worry about it? or should I do something to ferment the beer done more?
Any advise would be appreciated!
