I used 3 ounces of Cascade pellet that I thought were 7 AA but I realized the day after brewing they were 5.5. Also my efficiency was much better on yesterday's brew session so I'm realizing today that my FG may end up too sweet and my BU:GU will also be sweet.
How can I get my FG lower than what it usually ends up as and if I dry hop, will that add any bittering?
A Dark German Wheat Munich Ale
12 lb Dark German Wheat 7L
6.5 Dark German Munich 20L
2 dry packs Safale US-05
1.5 oz Cascade AAU of 5.5 at 60 minutes
1.5 oz Cascade AAU of 5.5 at 15 minutes
OG was 1.070
Predicted FG is 1.013 (I would like to get this lower)
BU:GU is 0.36 (Is it too later to get this to 0.75?)
Predicted ABV is 7.3%
Decoction Mashed 132F for 30 minutes, 140F for 20 minutes, 150F for 20 minutes, fly sparged 170F for 30 minutes.
5.25 gallons in the 6.5 carboy & 3.75 gallons in the 5 gallon carboy.
