My brew kit instructions read...
"Allow the beer to settle for 3-4 days after fermentation ceases (no more bubbles in the airlock). Generally, you'll be ready to bottle a week after beginning fermentation"
It has been over a week for me, and the airlock is bubbling ever so slightly. I thought you were supposed to bottle while some fermentation is still active so that the priming sugar can be converted still. If I wait until there are "no more bubbles" doesn't that make the bottle conditioning ineffective? I am tempted to bottle now while there are still slight signs of fermentation... any help??
