Quick question:
I put a stout into the primary for fermentation about 2 weeks ago. The airlock stopped action almost a week and a half ago, but I've been really busy and have not been able to bottle yet. I went to do it tonight and realized I didn't have enough caps, so I won't be able to bottle until Saturday. Is 3 weeks too long to leave beer sitting in the primary? It's in a plastic bucket with an airlock, in a dark room. Is this going to do anything negative to my beer?
