Sorry to roll this all into one thread. I've been enjoying some Brewers Best kits lately and decided to brew up their Whiskey Barrel Stout. First question, fermentation has either finished or stopped. Had lots of activity the first 4 days and now since early tuesday, no bubbles in the airlock. Which leads me to my next question. I'm planning on checking the gravity tonight because I know just because the airlock isn't showing activity doesn't mean fermt. has stopped. So Ill post that reading asap.
Has anyone had fermt. happen and be done so quickly? OG was 1.064 and my temps are steady at around 68 to 70. Used Safale US-04 which did say it was a fast fermt. yeast.
To my next questions. Is it ok to pop off the lid to check the gravity now? Am I risking anything? Generally I've been checking the FG at bottling time because the two week times have been spot on. Thanks in advance.
