I made a Honey Porter and the S.G. was about 1.056. I had alot of trouble getting it below 1.020, but I checked today and it's finally down to about 1.016- 1.017. It's been here for 3 strait days now. Should I consider this done? Transfer to secondary? THanks
 
unless you are in a hurry to get that fermenter opened up for another brew, i'd just leave it in the primary for another week or two and then bottle it. how long has it been fermenting?
 
I wouldn't consider this done. Let it go, like android says. Rouse the yeast by swirling the carboy a bit to get it back in suspension. I doubt it's done yet.
