I made my Whole Harvest ale Sunday and took a sample for the OG. Since it was a little warm, I left it on the kitchen counter to cool to room temp. Monday morning, it was bubbling away, as was the main fermenter. I decided to leave it on the counter & just watch the gravity drop. Tuesday afternoon, it hit 1.016 and I swapped over to the finish hydrometer. It's down to 3.1 Brix (that's about 1.012) and still bubbling. I'm expecting 1.009 (2.2 Brix).
I expect the main fermenter to lag behind a bit, so I'll check the bulk gravity once the sample stops dropping.
