You'd expect a FG around this mark if you were making a wine, but it's pretty low for a beer!danthebeerman wrote:has anyone had a FG lower than 0.998?

It's an Enzyme you can buy from your HBS. & it also comes bundled in some Dry style beer kits.
You sprinkle it into the wort pre fermentation.
It basically breaksdown unfermentable sugars down into fermentable sugars (hence the higher attenuation & corresponding lower FG) & gives you a drier beer.
