Hey everyone. So I decided to try doing an heather ale. OG was 1.08 and fermentation stopped at 1.022. I finally ended up pitching more yeast in it and the FG didn't change. After giving it enough time (close to 4 weeks) I was getting a bit of an off taste/aroma to it. Cold crashed it for a few days and the off flavor was still there. After two rough filtrations and cold crashing for 4 weeks it's amazingly clear and also pretty tasty but it also taste sweet but not sure if that's the sugar or the herbs I put in.
I'm not sure if I should bottle it now or try pitching more yeast to it to try to bring the OG down some. If there is still a lot of sugar left I might have some exploding bottles maybe after some time it's been bottled.
Any thoughts/advice?
