hey guys.
So, my Foreign extra stout will have been in primary for two weeks tomorrow. I pitched a decanted 1L starter of WLP007 for a 20L batch. The fermentation was mighty, starting in the first 3 hours after pitching, but the airlock is still bubbling. Its not bubbling a whole lot, id say a blurp every couple of minutes.
Should I take a hydrometer reading or let it sit until the bubbling stops all together?
My last beer was under-attenuated, so Im being patient with this one.. just worried if im being overly patient?
but, maybe this is a silly question, only to be answered by a hydrometer reading... dunno, I just want to fool with it as little as possible-- call it homebrew wait therapy.
thoughts?
thanks all.
