I am fermenting a double IPA with a starting gravity 1.078. I am using a second and third generation harvested Cal Ale yeast. I used a two liter starter with oxygen. I also oxygenated the wort.
Typically, I ferment out after 5 days and let it sit for another week. This beer has fermented down to 1.021 after 8 days. I add a pound of sucrose to my DIPA. I boiled that up and added it today. I also added additional yeast nutrient to the boil.
The Gen 2 yeast from was from March and the Gen 3 was from June. The starter fermented for two days before pitching and it was at high kruesen. Any thoughts? Just wait it out?
