Hi,
I am currently having a go at brewing my first ale having inherited all of my grandfathers brewing equipment.
I am using a kit called 'Woodforde's sundew ale'. I have followed the instructions so far and I am about to bottle the beer. The recipe tells me that it should take 4-6 days to be ready to bottle or when the hydrometer reads below 1014 degrees. It has been going for 8 days now but is sitting around 1020 degrees. Is it ok to bottle it, or do I need to wait until it drops below 1014?
I'm hoping to nail this one and eventually move away from kits.
Thanks in advance!
