So I brewed 2 Sundays ago, and all went pretty well. My OG was supposed to be 1.046, and I hit 1.050. Today, I had to move the carboy, as the temp in the back bathroom was a little high (73-75*). While moving it, I decided to thief out a bit and check the gravity.
Much to my surprise, the gravity is sitting on 1.010, which is the exact number that the recipe called for. I tasted it, and it has the flavor of the original beer, maybe a little bit of alcohol note on the end. Nevertheless, it's still good.
Should I start thinking about bottling it, or sit on it for another week, or longer? The airlock is bubbling about once every 16 seconds, so something is still a-happening.
Also, the temps shot up unexpectedly today, and the beer was reading 75* when I came home. I've got it down to 72* now, and it'll probably drop tonight. I should be good, right.
