Hi all,
Was hoping I could get a bit of advice on my hydrometer readings. I am currently brewing an IPA which has been fermenting for 12 days now. On day 10 I took a hydrometer reading which read 1.022. The instructions of my beer say that the end fermentation reading should be 1.015? If the reading on day 12 today is also 1.022 am I confident enough that the fermentation has finished and ready to bottle this evening. Is there any reason it may have stopped earlier?
Any help would be appreciated.
James
