Greetings,
So I brewed 9 days ago. After all this time, I still have bubbles in my airlock every 3 seconds. I've brewed a dozen batches or so and never encountered this. Is it possible to over ferment and produce a dry, bodyless beer? With every other batch, fermentation died down after a week or less. This is crazy!
I have not yet checked the gravity as I didn't want to disturb the process if it's ok. If it's not ok, than should I take a reading and cold crash to halt fermentation?
I just brewed a simple, extract based pale ale. Crystal 20L only specialty grain. 2oz hops. OG 1.050. Fermentation temp = 67 degrees F. WLP001 Yeast.
Your thoughts?
