Hi guys, this is my first time posting on this forum, i've read alot here but need some thoughts please.
This is my 2nd attempt with a kit, both have been Wals branded. The shop I have closest to me pushes this brand, but perhaps now I have found out why... It appears they own the brand.
Onto this beer itself. I used a Wals Wheat tin, 1.5kg of wheat liquid malt and the yeast provided in the tin (as I was informed that would do the job nicely). I then dry hopped after just over a week. The OG was 1.041 and the fermenter was kept at between about 20-22 degrees. Because I am new to this i've taken a few hydrometer readings to try check this was on track. 20 days later and the beer has stalled and is still at about 1.02 - it has been there about 1-1.5 weeks.
What do you think is the likely problem? Could it be as simple as garbage yeast that gives up or do you think it could be something else? My last Wals can also stalled higher than I would have liked.
Thanks for any thoughts!
