I started a mixed berry recipe 4 weeks ago based on a recipe I've had for a while, I stopped brewing for a long time so this is the first time I've tried it.
It called for 2kg of mixed berries and 450g of sugar, 450g of brewing sugar, plus yeast/nutrients and so on. It started well and has been on an inkbird controlled heatpad which I know through going through the data has been consistent at 20 degrees.
After 7 days i transferred to a demijohn and it has been fermenting for 3 weeks. It's slowed down over the past few days to a rate of 2 bubbles through the airlock per minute.
The OG was 1.100, but today, after 4 weeks, the SG is 1.020
I've left it to ferment but I'm a bit concerned that the recipe says it should be complete after 2-3 weeks but its been 4 and still not finished.
Should I leave it to carry on, start with the next stage or bin it?
thanks for any replies
