Making an English ale from a kit, OG was 1.056 and now its reading 1.015, so I am going to rack it to secondary. I tasted the beer from the hydrometer tube (and almost no more bubbling), and it tastes like beer, but a "softness" almost like its a bit weakly carbonated. Does that sound normal.
 
yep. Sounds about right. Have a beer, put your feet up and let us know what its like in a month. : )
 
Even at fermentation temperature and normal air pressure, some CO2 will remain in the beer. When you transfer it to the cleaning tank, this will give you a blanket of CO2 and prevent oxidation.
