German brewers rack right after the peak of krausen formation. Many around here don't rack at all. So, anywhere in between is fine too.

That is what you should have before bottling. You can rack anytime after peak yeast activity to another fermenter. Racking is different than bottling. If the OP means bottling, then take successive gravity readings or wait until 14 days from pitching (a normal gravity beer).
