Hey guys,
Got a rather lazy/simple brew going on. Brigalo Pilsner and BE1+250g dex using us-05 yeast. I just got myself a keg/c02 system so I wanted an easy batch to experiment with in kegs. This is the 3rd time I've had this problem, the yeast stalling at about 1016-20 with us-05. For the amount of fermentables in the BE1, I'd expect 1010 or lower. I guess going to kegs I don't have to worry about bottle bombs but it would still be nice to work out why this bloody yeast stalls all the time for me. I pitch it at about 22 then bring the temp down to 19-20 and let it sit there. At the moment it's at 24 just to try and bring things to life. It'll be 2 weeks on wednesday and it's at 1020 now.
Any information will be great. Thank you!
