Hello,
I am new to lagers. Two weeks ago today I brewed a Dopplebock (OG 1.084) and pitched two wyeast smack packs. I had an explosive fermentation and it has been in my heated garage at 52 degrees ever since. The blow off tube was switched to an airlock a week ago, and it has been bubbling away since. After 12 days (2 days ago now) I moved it inside to do a diacetyl rest. After 2 weeks I am still getting 5 bubbles a minute or so. I have not taken a gravity reading (I don't like messing with it till I rack) so I dont know exactly where I'm at. Would you either: take a gravity reading, just rack it, or RDWHAHB?
Thanks in advance for any input.
Jeff
