Can’t seem to get my abv over 3.5%. Any advice?

  1. This is the sub for the baseball team from Milwaukee, but don’t worry, someone will be along shortly with an answer. This happens about once a month.

  2. Youre in the baseball sub but honestly some of us can definitely help because we are also a bunch of beer lovers too. What kind of set up and recipe are you running? Some more info will be helpful to see whats going on

  3. Might need to PITCH another round of yeast in there to get it churning again… or check the fermenting temperature.

    In this sub we usually discuss Brewers pitchers though. 🙂

  4. I do love that while this is the subreddit for the baseball team, you still have a high probability to get the right answer.

  5. Probably get better answers over in r/homebrewing but a few troubleshooting

    -what are you making?
    -how are you measuring OG and FG?
    -what’s your process?

    Maybe this guy will help you. Make sure you have pancakes.

  7. Temp would be my guess. Bad yeast the second. You doing a starter or just dumping in the vile/packet?

  8. That is a loaded question. Are you doing all grain? Grain bill? Yeast used? Temp during fermenting?

    Gotta be more specific.

    Also, this is a sub for the Milwaukee Brewers. Happens all the time. Just means you have to be a Brewers fan now. Welcome to the club!

  9. Welcome to the family. Help yourself to snacks and something to drink while we assign you a favorite player. ™️®️©️

  10. Are you measuring your specific gravity? What are your numbers before and after fermentation?
