Hello I brew a Oatmeal stout an I took a hydrometer sample today an it currently setting at 1.022 my Gravity before pitching was 1.075. Now this is 5days after it been pitch an fermented now the yeast I pitch was a 1L starter of Omega Hothead yeast an I did oxygenated for 2min with pure O2 an fermented at 75f to 80f or whatever temp my room was. Now I know it’s only been 5days so I am guessing I should leave it unit next Friday or so that would be the 2 week mark. Here a picture of my recipe from Beersmith 3 mobile https://imgur.com/gallery/QqzphIN
 
Says there it should've been 1.055 and you got 1.075? Quite a difference. Give it a little more time, raise the temp if you can. Set the fermenter next to a heat vent or something.
