Hey guys-
I've got my first batch of beer in my primary, and it has been fermenting for 9 days now. I took a sample gravity reading two days ago, and then another one today, and it was the same at 1.013 (OG was 1.048). My question is whether I can bottle it now? I have been reading that once the gravity readings are constant, that fermentation is done, but I've also been reading that people like to leave it in the primary for 2-3 weeks? I'm not going to be putting it into a secondary either. You guys have all been super helpful so far, I appreciate all your help!
