Hi,
I set everything up to bottle my beer today, its a wheat beer - 1 tin of morgans golden sheaf wheat beer (think its 1.7kg) + 1 can of morgans master malt extract (wheat)(1.5kg, Kit yeast and nothing else. OG was 1036, i initially kept it at 18degrees C but fermentation didnt seem to start at this temperature so i raised it to 21-22degrees C at around day 3, fermentation then started and the airlock has been inactive for some time now. it is now day 13, (so at least 9-10 days to ferment once it had started) and the gravity reading is 1021. it appears complete in colour, bubbles, smell and from what i can tell taste (i havnt done a wheat beer before) but shouldnt it have fermented a bit further than 1021?
do you think it is complete and safe to bottle without blowing up my cupboard?
thanks :icon_cheers:
