Anyone have much experience with this yeast?
I'm planning a Pirate Life Pale Ale Clone on Saturday but I've just realised that Beersmith has a significantly lower attenuation rate for this yeast than what the manufacturer states. With the attenuation said to be between 77 - 85% by the manufacturer, I'm now way overshooting my planned ABV (5.4%).
What attenuation do people normally get with this yeast? Should I just mash high to try and balance it out?
If I update the yeast data and set the mash at 69 degrees, beersmith says I will reach the 5.4% ABV (1.053 SG as per PL website and 1.012 estimates FG).
