Hi. Just brewed an ESB which should come out about 5.4%abv. Target gravity has already been achieved in 2.5/3 days. I'm going to leave it for a while longer and then put in in the garage to cold crash and clear before barrelling.
Not concerned about the beer I'm sure it'll be ok. Just concerned I've over yeasted. The yeast calculator on here suggested 29g of dry yeast to ferment for a 24l batch and given the speed that seems to have been too much.
Has anybody got concerns/doubts over the yeast calculator on here. I'm summising 1.5/2 packets of yeast would have been enough rather than the 3 I pitched.
