Hi,
I set a Belgian Ale variation going on the 3/9/06.The start gravity was
I took a measurement on the 18/9/06 and then again today (21/9/06) and the gravity has been 1022 on both readings.
Is this a stuck fermentation and should I pitch more yeast, or should I just bottle it now?
Thanks,
Richy
There is 250g of non-fermentable lactose in my brew, so that accounts for the higher end gravity I think.

Why did you put lactose in your brew?
If you added unfermentables then you are probably done but with that high of a SG I'd let it go a couple weeks longer.
I like to experiment and not stick to the rules :) I said it was a variation hehe it probably won't end up anything like it but I started off with a Belgian Ale extract for the base and added certain things to it.
I bottled it a few days ago, and I've had some tastes of it while bottling - don't we all? - and it tasted real good. Strong too, at about 7.2%
