Brew seems to have decided to settle at 1011.5 and not going beyond. Been like that for 7 days.
To whit: 5.2 kg Maris otter; 15g Black Malt; northern brewer; bobek; SO4.
SG 1051 and ten days later it reaches 1011.5 and has stayed that way for seven days. Really clean and really smooth, :cheers: have no complaints but wondered why it hasn't gone down to 1010 or even under. Does the 15g of black malt give it a bit of density?
 
I think that's normal for S-04. The two I've done with it finished at 1012 and 1015 after starting at 1043 and 1058 respectively.
 
thats some accurate hydrometer reading :shock: ........1011.5
 
Lol! I didn't even put me specs on! do i get an upgrade from being a 'water boy' then! :grin: Thanks for the replies!
