I just started my first home brew last friday. So far so good, except a few things. I do have bubbles in my primary so that's good, but my temp is 75, so that's not good right? However, the temp is constant, and what is showing on the outside of the bucket not in. And this is a German Oktoberfest with an intial gravity of 1.047. My gravity is light about 5 thousanths light, is this goin to be a problem? I've wanted to make my own brew for a long time now, and just now able to do so. I've noticed through reading others threads that a lot of have waited a long long time to bottle after the secondary, is that normal, or just becuase most of you have something else already goin on? I figured a month and half from start to finish, but from reading that might be a lil fast, or really fast. I really want to make a good brew, and if you read my other thread u can see more of whats goin on. Anyway any help would be much appreciated.
