I brewed a Mexican Cerveza Kit. It was an LME kit with steeped grains for a little flavor and color. I followed the directions and ended up with an OG of 1.046. I checked the SG 12 days later and it was at 1.022, at day 15 now I am at 1.020. Should I just let it remain in the primary for a few more days? The instructions said it should end up around 1.012 after a week?
Another question is I am checking the SG with a Refractometer that has Brix, as well as S.G graduations. Is that OK?
Also, I am wanting to keg this beer as opposed to bottling....
Any ideas? Should I go ahead and keg, let it ferment a little while longer?
BTW, I pitched a Wyeast German Ale smack pack at around 75*F and have been fermenting in my dark closet with an ambient temp of between 65-68*F in a 6 gallon Ale Pail.
