Hi All-
Brewed my 1st batch last week, Midwest Brewing Supplies Irish Stout.
I've got a couple of concerns about my fermentation...I'd appreciate any feedback/ help anyone could offer.
1.) Once I got the wort into my primary bucket (w/ a blow off tube), it sat with no visible signs of fermentation for 48 hours. Then it was burping non- stop for about 36-48 hours. Then, nothing for the next 4 days. Is this normal?
2.) After 8 days, I transferred the beer to my secondary (plastic better boy) with a 3 piece airlock. Since the transfer, I have not seen a single bubble or burp come up. Should I be concerned about this? Any chance I need to add more yeast?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
