took a specific gravity reading today...sure enough...it was 1.012, just about on target...I am assuming I just missed the action, or I had a leaky lid which released the co2...either way I'll give it a bit more time then bottle it...see where we go!

I did reseal the lid...still no bubbling...there is a layer of hops on the side of the bucket, but that's it...i'm just surprised because my last beer was a wheat bear and it had a VIOLENT fermentation...the airlock itself was gunked with hops and krem...I was lucky I didn't have a blow...

yeast was one packet of dehydrated wb-06...instructions said to just sprinkle on the finished wort...the original gravity was 1.043 I believe...

Made the Brewer's best witbier...a bit more complex for my third batch but what the hell...pitched yeast at about 80° F or so...my home is very stable at 70°...nothing...opened the top...I don't see the krem? that I am assuming I usually should...I can't IMAGINE that it finished fermentation...

Maybe I didn't add exactly 5 gallons to the primary (but I feel like I was pretty on the money)...and I know that the fermentation will absorb some of the liquid...but when i bottled I only got about a case and a half bottled...the kit called for over 53 12 ounce bottles...any thoughts? It's my...
