I left an Oktoberfest lager on the primary yeast cake for 6 weeks without transferring to secondary. My temps were good the entire time.

Anything I should worry about? Think I should just bottle it or should I transfer it to secondary and give it a couple more weeks?

Thanks!
 
i wouldn't worry about the 6 weeks on the yeast. lagering in primary isn't uncommon.

is the beer clear? has all the yeast settled out? if so, no need to secondary... bottle or keg away!
