Why does my beer finish sweeter than expected?
In this episode, we explore the science and art of attenuation — the key to achieving the perfect balance between dryness and sweetness in your beer.
We’ll cover how attenuation is measured, the role of mash conditions, the influence of yeast strains, and how factors like temperature, pH, and nutrition impact fermentation results.
You’ll also learn troubleshooting tips, the value of forced fermentation tests, and best practices for achieving predictable, consistent attenuation every time.
