I did a partial mash Blonde ale with about 6lb base malt and 3 lb Golden light DME. I'm fermenting with Crossmyloof Belgian ale yeast and I've gone past my target FG in about 48 hours. My Tilt hydrometer is currently reading 1.007 and i'm still seeing bubbles. i just Took a regular hydrometer reading and confirmed the Tilt is within .001
I did plan on cold crashing this for at least 2 days to help clear it up, but only until fermentation had fully stalled. But seeing as this is going to get pretty dry, i wondered if cold crashing now while i'm still seeing activity would be an option. Or if it would be better to just let it go another few days until all activity has stopped.
I feel i should also mention that i used a 1/2tsp yeast nutrient, mashed the grain at 150 and fermented at room temp which is about 73*f. The sample is tasting good, albeit slightly more Estery and Phenollic than i would've hoped.
