This is the first time I’ve used liquid 1056 yeast! Wow, the stuff just goes and goes, it seems! On one of my fermenters, it is still producing (slow, mind you) bubbles in the air lock after 2 weeks. I was thinking it was going to be time to keg, but I don’t know. The OG was 1.057 using refractometer. I also used refractometer after 2 weeks and get a reading of 1.027…I know there is a formula for figuring in the alcohol using refractometer, but I forget. The ABV is supposed to be about 5.2% by now. It started our at about 72 degreees, and then has been about average of 62-65 degrees.
I have an even I need these for by Dec 7th, (have 6 brews that need to be kegged and carbonated by then) but I don’t want 3.5% beer… given these numbers, am I ok, or should I wait. Am I figuring right on the lower ABV or is it skewed because of refractometer? Thanks…
