First I need to apologize for adding too many threads
I really think I need to know things before I try anything new
I don't want things to end up in disaster
I want to brew a sweet beer
Like Scotch ale
Found a recipe
It says the fg is 1.020
Now my question is why should an ale yeast stop in that fg? Is it because it has reached the maximum abv level? Is that's the case, how can I bottle condition it? If I add sugar, it won't ferment it
The other thing I'm worried about is the beer getting infected by some wild yeast or bacteria that can ferment sugars in high abv, with an fg of 1.020, that was definitely result in bottle bombs, right?
