Still new to homebrewing, and I recently brewed a 5 gallon wheat extract beer. I followed the recipe to a T on brew day and let it sit for 2 weeks to ferment. The expected OG was 1.046 and it was right on the money.
I added 5 pounds of raspberries and let it sit for another 2 weeks. Just bottled it 4 days ago, and the FG was 1.012. Just for the plain wheat recipe, the expected FG was 1.007. Since I added the berries, Im not sure if 1.012 (4.46% ABV) was low enough.
The beer tasted tart and smelled great, and there were just some small bubbles at the top of the beer before I bottled. Is this all fine?
