Got a IIPA (black) on the go and its just about time to transfer to kegs. Problem is it started at 1.102 and is now 1.024. I don't think im going to get much more out of the 1272 I used and I did add dextrose at 1.030 so the yeast would eat all the hard stuff first then Polish off the dex and finish dryish. It's at 77% attenuation now but im wondering if the bitterness is going to balance out the malt sweetness at 1.024? It will be around 9.5% now.
I know it's out of style and really big and may not work out but would really like to save this one.
Cheers
