Forgot to take a hydrometer reading :(

Dummy me forgot to take a hydrometer reading when I brewed my British Bitter extract kit from NB. It's been in the fermenter for 1 week... should I wait 2 weeks... or a bit longer before transferring to my keg?

Thanks guys :tank:

Is it an extract kit? Did you use the right amount of water? If so, you hit your expected OG within a point or two.

I haven't taken a hydrometer reading since the very first beer I made 6-7 years ago. I never will again unless I switch to all-grain. I don't see that it is necessary for extract brewing. 1-2 weeks after it is in the fermenter I keg it.

This is the kit.
