I've had an extract citrus hefeweizen fermenting for about two weeks. The airlock still bubbles occassionally, but the hydrometer says it's done as far as I can tell. It smells rubbery/sulfury, but from what I hear, that goes away with bottling and carbonation. Am I safe to bottle yet, or should I do a long primary even though the beer won't really clear? I noticed that EdWort's hefeweizen only lists a 10 day primary and no secondary, so I was wondering if I'd be okay.
I could wait until next week, but this is my first batch so I'm a bit anxious. Plus, I'm getting the ingredients for a stout and I'd like to free up the better bottle.
I'm using WLP300 yeast, hence the odor.
