Hi, everyone. Another question from the FNG here...
Made a Pale Ale from a kit by Brewer's Best.
Followed instructions, pitched yeast, airlock, and set in a corner of the den where temps are a pretty steady 66-68 degrees.
Got some vigorous bubbling action about 32-36 hours in, and it was active for a good 4-5 days.
Then it stopped. I've seen almost no bubble action at all since day 5.
In my past experiences, fermentation takes a good two weeks, sometimes closer to three weeks, before the bubbles die off. This one, being done in less than a week, seems.... odd.
Is it abnormal to have fermentation done in a week? Or should I swirl the beer, get the turb back into the beer and see if it continues to ferment?
Gracias, as always, y'all.
