Re: stuck or is that it? Novocaine

Well, I bottled it and there was no difference in the hydrometer reading from over a week ago. Good info screwy, if I ever do try it again, I'll try that yeast and do a starter. Now, I have yet to start the snake eyes recipe that's waiting in the cabinet, another high abv. It also came with the us05...

Re: stuck or is that it? Novocaine

It came with a packet of us-05 so the whole packet went in. If its done, that'll be a big disappointment :/ sure it'll probably taste great and its still up there in abv but for the money, won't be doing it again. I saved a bit when the big sale was on.

stuck or is that it? Novocaine

Instructions call for about 1.020 for a FG but at 2 weeks I'm at 1.031. The API IPA I did 6 weeks ago was off about the same from the called for FG, the hydrometer didn't move over a 3 day period on that one. OG for the Novocaine was 1.098.
