Hi guys!
We brewed this last Sunday, following this recipe for a 10L batch:
- 1.7 kg Maris Otter (68%)
- 400 g Abbey Malt (16%)
- 400 g CaraMunich II (16%)
- 14g East Kent Goldings (5.5%AA) 60m
- 5g East Kent Goldings (5.5%AA) 20m
- 21g Saaz (2.6%AA) 0m
- 1/4 Protafloc 10m
- Half package LalBrew Abbaye Belgian
After a lot of activity in the first three days, where the room temperature was around 21°C, on Thursday it almost stopped. The room temp also dropped to 19 ish.
OG was 13.6%brix at 20°C (1.052, corrected (1.04)) and since Wednesday it is stable at 7%brix (1.012 also corrected and also after applying the alcohol correction with the Brewers Friend refractometer calculator)
Is it ready for bottling tomorrow, or it would be better to wait another week, to give time to the protafloc to work?
Are the gravity calculations correct?
Cheers
