Ok, so I brewed a hefeweizen using extract and specialty grains on April 16. I had an OG of 1.047 and pitched the wyeast 3068 at 71F and kept the fermentation at those temps for a week - it was going like crazy! This weekend I brought the ferm bucket down into the basement, swirled it slightly to rouse the yeast a bit and ensure things had fermented out, and left it cool to 57F. I was hoping to bottle tonight, so I checked the FG yesterday, and it is down to 1.012, which is right on target according to Hopville, but it seems like there is still a krausen on the top of the beer! I've never used this yeast before, and this is only my fourth brew, so I have no idea what to make of this all. I tasted the FG sample and it was great. Is fermentation done? Do I wait, or rack and bottle? What's up with my beer? Any help or comments would be great!
