I racked this beer to 2ndary today. The hydrometer sample tasted pretty good. I filled a one-liter bottle with some and it's under pressure with a Carbonator on it, so I'll break that out at the February meeting.

Some data from Beer Smith:

  • OG: 1.055
  • FG: 1.012
  • ABV: 5.6%
  • Apparent Attenuation: 77.3%
  • Calories/pint: 244
  • Calories/pint from alcohol: 152

So do you know what day, or Specific Gravity mark you were at when you did the D-rest?

Last weekend (the 6th, I think) I turned up the thermostat to 65°. I don't think it ever got up to that temp, but it definitely got warmer than the 49° where it fermented. I did not rouse the yeast. I didn't detect any D-word after I measured the SG yesterday morning so I went ahead and racked it and turned the thermostat down to 34°. The beer is already pretty dang clear. Kegging is planned for next weekend.
