My experience is a couple of home-recipe ginger beer batches, but I decided to try an IPA extract kit from a brew store.

Recipe expectations:

• OG - 1.058
• FG - 1.016
• ABV - 5.5%

Brewed on the Saturday. OG was 1.040. Fermentation started slowly later that day, spent all Sunday bubbling happily, but basically stopped after that. I've hit the 2 week mark, and have had three days of consecutive readings of 1.020, for an ABV of about 2.63%

Have I messed this up, and is it saveable?

Anyone been to any of the French restaurants in the city? Thinking of something to take the wife for her birthday.

Any first hand experiences/recommendations?

At the risk of stating the obvious, freshly cut grass clippings are green. Leave them in a wheelbarrow to dry out for a week or so, and they're brown.

Does this mean they serve the relevant roles in compost as per their colour? If I need more browns, can I just put my grass clippings straight in or do they need to dry out first?
