Hi
I have just completed a brew (Milk Stout) with a single stage fermentation. I am a little confused about what I see in the Beersmith fermentation tab.
After 30 days in the primary I have an SG of 1.016. Below this number, Beersmith shows a greyed out "Gravity after secondary" number of 1.011 (greyed out obviously because I have chosen a single stage). However, the estimated Final SG, according to Beersmith, is 1.010 "at Bottling". Clearly I am currently way off this.
Will the SG reduce further in the bottles (I'm using carbonation tablets) or should I have left if longer in the Primary? According to the profile it should only age for 7 days in the bottles!
Where is Beersmith getting the estimated final SG measurement from?
Any thoughts?
Cheers
Simon
