I use a Tilt to monitor fermentation. A Hefeweitzen I brewed last Wednesday was doing just fine, down to 1.023 at 11:30 this morning. For unknown reasons the Tilt Pi (a Raspberry Pi that logs to Google Sheets) went offline after that, and when I rebooted it some 4 hours later, the SG was reading 1.036.
Even shaking the fermenter a little, the SG didn't change, still 1.036. Screenshot of the data below.
I am inclined to just ignore it, but can anyone think of reasons why the specific gravity would increase so dramatically and suddenly?
