Just wondering if anyone out there knows why a fermentation doesn't get down to its projected gravity.
I brewed an all grain seasonal maple ale on saturday with my BIAB system, all went well although my mash temp was a little higher than I would have liked. I pitched white Labs English Ale 002 at around 20C. It started in around 12 hours of pitching, and stopped 4 days later but was very slow the last 2 days. OG was 1052 which was lower than the target 1061.This seems to happen to me regularly. I just checked the gravity now and its only down to 1030.
This isn't the first time this has happened to my fermentation. Does anyone have any advice? and is there any way to start this fermentation up again?.
Thanks in advance.
