I got 1057 - 1010.

Did you use re-cultured commercial yeast?

I have had to rescue a couple of brews where I used re-cultured pale ale yeast with dry yeast as I must have under pitched and the FG was way too high.

The scotch ale turns out great Benken [love] I had a bottle last weekend and at the 7 month mark it is ageing very nicely indeed.

 

As for the re-cultured yeast, I have also had the odd one die in the arse before the work was done. I tend to use the dregs of a minimum of 6 stubbies of the freshest Pale Ale I can find to make sure it has a fighting chance.
