Hey guys,
I brewed an all grain Firestone Wookey Jack clone with Wyeast London ESB. Attenuation is 67-71. I pitched two packets of the yeast and gave it some good shakes, though I wouldn't doubt I could have done a bit better oxygenating it. Target OG was 1.080 and I measured at 1.077.
According to the recipe, my target FG is 1.015, but I'm about day 10 in primary and my gravity is 1.017. It hasn't had any movement in days and the krausen was fallen when I took the sample just now. Should I assume it's done? I'm not sure how big a leap each of these numbers actually are, so I don't know if I should label myself a perfectionist and sit down, or worry that it's stuck. It does taste a bit sweeter than I had expected, but pretty good otherwise.
Advice would be great. I'm going to start my dry hop on day 11.
Also, how much time do you guys usually give for a diacetyl rest? I'm following the recipe I have, but thoughts on that are welcome also.
Thanks!
Thanks!
