I just checked my Oktoberfest after pitching a starter on Saturday at 12 deg C. 4 days later the gravity has dropped from 1.054 to 1.026. This appears to be a very fast fermentation? It has been sitting on 9.5 deg C from just after it was pitched. I have stired in the krusen twice over the past 4 days. Even today its still at 10 deg C and the airlock is bubbling every 4 seconds. I plan to let this ferment right out and then rest at 14 deg C for 24 hours then crash and keg. I plan to do it all in the primary fermenter as I want to save all the yeast cake.
So is this yeast the same as 34/70? if so I though that was a slow as an old mole.
I am loving this stuff so far anyway. I guess I should expect this to finish between 1.012 and 1.014.
