I have never double checked them until now. I've been using them for about 3 years now.:(

I just checked another beer that I did the same weekend. It had a OG of 1.059 and a final of 1.016. The tilt said 1.007 but the hydrometer had a reading of 1.014 from the keg. Looks like the tilts are right on the money for OG but way off on the final. Still not sure why my fermentation is...

Thanks for all the help. I just took a hydrometer reading of the beer from the keg and it read 1.012. The tilts are not as accurate as they say they are.

Don't know the answer to that. I'll double check it with a hydrometer.

Here is the tilt info 12/16/2022 15:59:23 1.005 12/15/2022 6:44:43 1.005 12/14/2022 16:26:44 1.011 12/14/2022 6:44:10 1.012 12/13/2022 20:41:27 1.015 12/13/2022 15:48:33 1.016 12/13/2022 12:43:50 1.019 12/13/2022 6:44:39 1.022 12/12/2022 18:56:42 1.029 12/12/2022 17:12:09 1.026 12/12/2022...

I'm using my tilt for final gravity.

Will do. I mash for 1 hour always. After every brew day I clean everything with PBW and starsan along with my fermenters . I have to agree it does not add up. I'll also check my tilt vs. a hydrometer. Thanks again.

Sorry you are correct. I use House A01. Thanks

Below Grade Brewing

Thanks for the quick replies. I'm hoping that the easy answer is that my mash temperatures are to low but I have a cheap thermometer that I check with my main temperature and they are within 2 degrees from each other. I've ordered a more accurate thermometer for a better comparison. I use tilt...

I have been brewing for some time now and I have a hard time hitting my final gravity numbers. I'm always way to low like by 10 points. I mash in at 152 and mash out at around 168. I usually can hit my Original gravity before boil but never my final gravity. I use imperial liquid yeast...
