So I brewed an Oktoberfest using Wyeast 2112 California Lager, was expecting a F.G. of about 1.012, but ended up with a F.G of 1.023. The first batch was fermented at 58 degrees F. I decided to do a second batch and after reading the yeast profile, I noticed the recommendation was to brew on the warmer side, so I fermented my second batch at 62 degrees, but still had a F.G. of 1.023.
At this point, I'm wondering if maybe my grain bill has something to do with it...I mashed both batches at 152 F, for an hour and my grain bill is listed below. Anyone have any experience with this particular yeast and/or a similar grain bill?
Munich Light - 7 lbs
Victory - 1.25 lbs
Crystal 20 - .625 lbs
Carafoam - .25 lbs
Munich LME - 3.3 lbs
O.G. 1.066
