Ok i brewed my first batch last friday night, airlock activity all but stopped 3 and a half days later. This evening i sanitized my hydrometer and dropped it in to get a FG.
It is spot on to the recipe!
My questions,
1. When i put the hydrometer in initially it got stuck in the the trub and wouldn't come up, i had to bump the ale pale to dislodge it which caused minor splashing for a few seconds inside the pale. I had the lid closed tight over it when i bumped it so there wasn't direct exposure to the open air. What might my chances of oxidation occuring.
2. Since the FG is correct should i auto siphon into a corny at this point let it set in my kegerator for a few days and then force card say wed.?
