It finished in 48 hours. It has been fermenting slowly for 5 days and now has stopped blowing CO2 through the airlock at any noticeable rate (less than 1 bubble every 3--4 minutes) I took a hydrometer reading last night and it read 1.018. This seems high for a F.G. in comparison to my other beers of the same approximate S.G. The last 1/2 ounce of hops was put in a strainer in a funnel and wort strained through it on its way to the carboy, as described in Papazian. A blow-off tube was used. - 3 - Brew Your Own Beer Bass Ale Category Pale Ale Recipe Type All Grain Fermentables 6-7 lbs pale malt (2-row) 1 lbs crystal malt 1 lbs demarara or dark brown sugar Hops 1 oz Northern Brewer hops (boil) 1 oz Fuggles hops (boil 30 min.) .5 oz Fuggles hops (finish) Yeast ale yeast Procedure This is an all-grain recipe---follow the instructions for an infusion mash in Papazian, or another text.

The result should be a mushy, gummy mess. Mash malt, barley and gelatinized grains in moderately hard water at 150F for 1-1/2 hours. Raise to 168F to deactivate enzymes. Sparge with hot water (168F) to collect 250+ degrees of extract (e.g., 6 gallons at S.G. 1.042). Boil 1-1/2 hours, adding all but 1/2 ounce of hops after 1 hour, honey towards end of boil. Chill wort and add cold water to bring S.G. to 1.050. Pitch with working starter. Dry-hop with reserved hops in hopping bag. Primary fermentation takes 5-7 days.
