Hi All,
I'm making my first batch from a kit (Muntons Gold Old English Bitter). It's been fermenting 12 days now and in the last couple of days the beer has cleared nicely and the bubbling has slowed to a small bubble every minute or so; the o.g. has dropped to 1.015.
Is it OK to bottle up now or should I wait until the bubbles have stopped completely? The kit says to bottle when o.g. is stable under 1.014 but it also says to ferment for only 7-8 days.
What do the experienced brewers say...?
