Hey everyone. I have my first batch fermenting now. I had an initial gravity of1.041. After 8 days in the primary bubbleing was about 1/30seconds so I racked to a secondary. The racking was a bit toublesome with the autosiphon. It was a bit slow and stopped at one point so I ended up using it as a hand pump for about 1/3 of a gallon before I could get it started again. It never seemed to bubble much in the secondary and 5 days into it I counted one small bubble in mayby 10 minutes.
The gravity is 1.18 and hasnt changed much if at all in the last 5 days. Can I still bottle in aboout a week (after two weeks in the secondary). A 1.18 gravity seems awefully high and a good recipie for a bottle bomb.
Thanks for any advice.
