Hi,
My dead guy ale clone (Yoop's recipe) has been in primary for 11 days. Data for SG is:
OG = 1.080 (higher than expected)
Current G = 1.038
Attenuation is only 50% ... I used my cultured pacman from shakespeare stout. This is lower than expected for sure...
I wonder if it is time to rack to secondary? or should I wait....
I was going to cook up a Newkie clone tonight and pitch on top of this yeast cake... Is this yeast still good? 50%... maybe I didn't have enough starter to kick it up... i think the lag was about 12 hours after I pitch.
The beer tastes good out of the test tube, but it is just too sweet... 5.6%ABV can still give me a good buzz...
If this doesn't work, I'll do my newkie with 5 g glass carboy with Notty...
Thanks
