I made a newcastle clone and am fermenting it in a stainless conical (xmas gift) - I dropped some trub on the 5th day and took a reading, the gravity was right where the receipe said the FG should be, on the 8th day took another reading and the gravity hasn't changed.
My question is that it's only been 8-days; should I transfer it to the keg or does it need to condition longer in the fermenter? I have no idea when I should take it out of the fermenter and keg it, and once I keg it how long does it need to sit since I am not depending on the yeast to produce CO2? I took a little taste and it seemed "watery" to me. total volume is about 5 gal.
Thanks!
