This is my first brew.
I am making Praire wheat from a brew house kit.
I sanitized my 6.5 gallon carboy and EVERYTHING else the beer would have touched using starsan.
I added 1 gallon of spring water, the packet of ph buffer, and then poured in the wourt, about 30 minutes later I sprinkled the yeast in there.
I started about 6 o'clock on friday night the temperature of the beer was 69-70*, the very next day I woke up and my airlock was whistling there were millions of bubbles in the beer, but only about an inch and a half of foam on top and the temp had climbed to about 75*, last night I noticed my airlock was slowing down but still steady bubbling and the temp was 72ish*. I woke up this morning and it was flat, no foam, no bubbles in the beer and the air lock was bubbling about every 6 seconds. Right now as I type the airlock is bubbling every 15 - 17 seconds, there is no foam and the temp is back down to 70*.
I know it may be too soon to start worrying, but I was under the impression it would bubble for 7-10 days. It hasnt even been 3 days and mine seems to be done (whic I know is wrong)
Do any of you guys see a problem here?
Thanks in advance. I have spent tons of money on this already and dont want to throw out my first batch.
