I am make a pale ale extract kit. My airlock has stopped bubbling but It still has pressure. My final gravity reading (taken with a wine theif) is 1.020. However, according to the pale ale recipe I used final gravity should be 1.010. I had planned on bottling tomorrow which will be 3 days from when I took the gravity reading. So if I take another gravity reading tomorrow and it's still 1.020 will the beer be ok to bottle. I want to avoid gushers or bottle bombs.
Also, is it normal for a final gravity reading to be different than what is described in the instructions.
