Hi folks, started a Coopers Lager partial mash (1kg of lager malt mashed at 67C for 30mins, added handful of Saaz and boiled for 20mins, plus 1kg of BE1) last Friday so had six full days in FV. 11.5g pack of Safale 05 pitched dry at 20C.
SG has gone from 1.048 to 1.032 in six days, from experience with Safale 05, I would have expected it to go much lower by now.
Has a thick krausen which is still sitting on top, again I would have expected this to drop before now.
I've had a few brews sticking lately (3 out of last 4 I think, usually at the dreaded 1.020 and not moved from there) and wonder if I'm doing something wrong.
Hope this one doesn't get stuck, am fed up with overly sweet, weak beer!
