While using Brewers Friend, I can adjust the FG by moving my saccharification temps a bit. I've generally stayed in the 150-155 range (more towards the top end to increase body) and have found the results to be pretty good.

I'm wondering how many of you tweak this stage and how far you wander up or down. I'm currently working on a Robust Porter recipe and have 157 set as my saccharification temp to increase dextrins and get a fuller body, but I'm wondering if I'm starting to push too high.

Thoughts?
