Hi all, I am a newb to brewing, but I was after some help.
Doing an Amber ale extract, added 150g of Choc malt grains, LME and Fuggles hops for extra flavour. (I boiled the grains and hops, yeah I know bad move) and a 1kg of dextrose. My og was 1.040 ish.. The yeast was standard from the kit ( unsure of strain)
My question is how long shall I ferment for? Should I just check the hydrometer ( my target is 1.010 1.012) or should I wait a certain amount of time before even considering open the fermenter. Any help would be great. Go easy.. I am a newb.
