Hi guys,
I racked an 11 day primary with a SG of about 1.007 yesterday and its still bubbling away today. IM using s04, heat pasteurized cider with a starting OG (added some sugar) of about 1.06. I racked it once and must have done a bad job because only an hour later there was significant sediment at the bottom of my carboy. After seeing the sediment i racked it again.
Today there is more sediment! Are the yeast still growing or are they falling out of solution? Although my airlock is still passing gas it has slowed now to one burp every 4 seconds. Is this normal for a secondary or should I have left it in the primary longer? I read here that you could stop s04 without cold crashing <1.01.
Excited regardless I'll take SG readings daily to see what's up
