So I made a batch of a wheat ipa, I can post the recipe but it used wheat LME, flaked oats and wheat and some 2 row along with cascade and citra hops.
I can post exact recipe if needed.
I used dry safale 05 no starter pitched from the pack.
OG was 1.090
At 2 weeks in it was at 7.62% forget exact gravity and was still very sweet
About a week later its at 1.023 gravity
I've been fermenting under pressure at about 6psi and the 1.023 would mean my attenuation is about 73% which I'm guessing for safeale 05 is ok or average, so do you think it's done or needs to sit longer?
I was gonna dry hop today with 2oz citra and a .5 oz cascade
Also I tested the sample and it was a little sour at the end. It smells fruity and nice and taste ok up front but a little sour at the end, anyone have any idea what that might be from? I did pitch my yeast a little too warm 90ish degrees
