I brewed a honey ale last weekend. I took it out of the primary tonight after 9days.
The ingredients were:
8 oz Carapils steeped at about 155 for 20 minutes
3.3 lbs Gold liquid malt extract
3 lbs honey
Wyeast Activator #1056
The original gravity was projected to be between 1.044 and 1.048. Mine was 1.046.
Projected final gravity was 1.012 to 1.016. When I tested tonight gravity was at 1.002.
It fermented at 68-72 degrees.
What went wrong?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts and help.
