5 weeks after pitching WB-06 my beer tastes very sweet and the FG is 1.03. I don't know what went wrong. It was supposed to finish at 1.007. I was getting a bubble every second from the fermenter for the first 2 weeks, 1 every 10 seconds in the 3rd week, 1 every 30 on the 4th, and 1 every minute in the 5th. The fermenter was churning really well for the first 9 days so everything looked fine.
Here is my recipe:
5 lb Wheat
5 lb Pilsner
1.5 Munich
1 lb Vienna
60 minute mash at 157 fahrenheit
Fly sparge 170 for 30 minutes
60 minute boil
WB-06 dry yeast rehydrated and pitched into 70 degree wort.
Fermented in a constant 66 degree, dark room.
***Added note: It's definitely not the yeast because I threw a brand new batch of wort mashed at 135 on top of that yeast cake Tuesday and the fermentation has been incredibly active.
