Just bottled my first (an American Pale Ale). I forgot to take a FG reading prior to transfering into the bottling bucket and adding the priming sugar. So when I did check it obviously it was higher than at the last check 2 days before (went from 1.012 to 1.014). I'm just wondering if .002 points is a normal amount to go up when the priming sugar is added. Guess it doesn't really matter at this point but it seemed like a big jump.
Though i never did the 3 readings for 3 days in a row thing it did sit in the primary for three weeks and reached the expected FG range when it was 1.012 so now i'm hoping it was done.
It was done fermenting right? Do i need to worry about bottle bombs? I was unable to take an OG due to a broken hydrometer.
