    Question about my first batch.

    I did a Brewers Best Imperial Pale Ale which is supposed to be a an Arrogant Bastard clone. Its been in the fermenter for 2 weeks and I didnt do a SG reading when I made the brew.

    First batch and I have no air bubbles in the airlock

    Just another quick question/update on my first batch. I brewed the beer on Sunday evening and the bubbling action in the airlock has pretty much stopped. It almost appears the krausen is slightly breaking apart. Is this normal. Sorry for the stupid question.

    The krausen on the beer didnt blow out the top of the carboy. It basically grew about 2 inches and that was it. There is a nice thick layer of krausen on top of the beer. Should I have expected it to flow through the top of the carboy? I did hook up the blow off but it seemed to be uneccessary.

    First batch and I have no air bubbles in the airlock

    I brewed some beer from a kit and im not getting any bubbles in the airlock whatsoever. Im hoping I didnt do anything wrong. The only way to get the yeast mixed in was to shake the crap out of the carboy. Could I have damaged the beer? Am I being impatient. Should I wait to check the gravity?
