Dear All,
I'm brewing a Saison for the first time. I usually ferment stronger ales for 14 days without even bothering to measure SG before day 10.
With the Saison, my OG was 1.046 and I was aiming for a FG of 1.004 (ABV 5.5%). I am using Belle Saison Danstar Yeast. I have been fermenting at 25-30C for 6 days now and my SG is already down to 1.004. This is my question: should I wait and see if the SG drops even further or should I bottle now and allow for a few weeks of secondary fermentation and conditioning in the bottles?
Thanks,
Michael
