Hey everyone. I'm brewing my first high-grav beer, and perhaps this is just a by-product of the style -- but I wanted to get some reassurance that something strange isn't happening.
Monday will mark three weeks of fermentation, and while visible signs have slowed -- it's definitely still going. Airlock is 'bubbling' roughly once every 30 seconds, and while the krausen dropped it's sill active.
Took a specific gravity reading this morning, and it game out at 13.72% ABV. I tasted a little of the solution, and it tastes good -- albeit a little boozy.
I took the opportunity to dry hop it while I was testing the gravity, but I'm wondering how much longer I'll need to wait until bottling. Should I test the gravity again in a week?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
