Greetings,
I brewed up a Belgian Tripel extract kit about two weeks ago now and it is still bubbling away! Has anyone heard of this or experienced it? I haven't bothered checking the SG yet since it is still bubbling and has a nice head (karausen sp?), but I am going to start taking measurements tonight.
Don't have OG/FG on hand, but I did use a yeast starter/booster, and it is a High Gravity Ale (actually, I believe that the OG (?FG?) is estimated at 1.079). Is this a common thing, or is my beer just going to kick some major ass? :rockin:
Also (on an unrelated note), I realize that this is quite the opposite of a "stuck" fermentation, but how does one identify a "stuck" fermentation? Do you guys keep some extra yeast [of the same strain] around just in case you need to "un-stick" a fermentation?
Cheers and beers,
-Nick
