My stout is sitting at 1.021, the target FG, but it's thin. I added brown sugar to the boil to increase the ABV but I thought since the target FG was 1.021 it would still be viscous. Here's the recipe:
All Grain (5 gallon)
Target OG: 1.091
Target FG: 1.021
Target ABV: 9.31%
Actual OG: 1.092
Actual FG: 1.021
Actual ABV: 9.4%
13.5# 2 Row
1# chocolate malt
1# oats, flaked
8oz black (patent) malt
4oz roasted barley
4oz crystal 120
12oz brown sugar added 10 minutes left in boil.
What could have caused the beer to be thin? Any help is greatly appreciated.
