Update guys, Specific gravety was at 1.014-1.015 im assuming everything went fine. Im going to rack into my secondary. Thanks for your help guys.

For a American wheat style bear what kind of final gravity could i expect? I know this is a very broad question, but any insight will help. I brewed up a kid of of an American wheat bear that i recivied from my local brew shop thursday, and left it at my bothers house to ferment. I came back...

Thanks for the reply, as far as sanatizing the siphion and the secondary is soaking them in bleach solution then rinsing them a adaquate plan for those as well? How important is using the hydrometer?
