I have never had belle saison finish that high. It's an absolute monster, has gone to 0.997 for me. I wish I could get it to stop around 1.005, would make IBU balance a lot easier

Never had that problem when using Belle Saison. Are you adding sugar? Is this an all grain brew?

All grain. I am not mashing low either, they just dry out completely for me.

Exactly! I totally thought it was done, looked fairly bright and stable gravity over 48 hours; but it kept attenuating in the bottle to a pretty extreme level. Haven't done a SG check on a degassed sample, but I reckon it will be under 1.004. Thank god for 500ml champers bottles.

All grain, 67C mash. Full on stuff.
