OK I am still a newbie so I thought I would ask this question. I took my second test sample of my Milk Stout kit made from Brewers Best. I have hit the recommended FG 1.021. This will be in the primary 4 weeks as of Saturday. This has taken along time to hit the FG of 1.021 maybe bad Notty yest I think as I had to re-pitch some Notty yeast. My question is when I take a test sample there is still bubbles in it CO2 I am assuming. If I shake the test sample with my hand over it I gets a head on it just like it was carbed up. Do you think I will be OK bottling this come Saturday as long as the FG is still the same? I am also doing a Oatmeal Milk Stout (AG) witch will be 3 weeks old on Saturday and also has the same tiny little bubbles in it raising from the bottom to the top which has also hit it's FG of 1.012. I know the Milk Stout seems high for the FG but that is what the recipe says for the FG to be. I did a IPS from brewer's best which was my first time making beer about 2 months or so ago but just followed the instructions with doing a secondary (lucky) or I would of bottled in 10 days instead I waited 3 weeks. It is very hoppy but not to bad. I also have an Belgian Abbey Ale I just did on Thursday. I guess I am hooked. If someone could answer the bubbles mystery for me so i know I headed in the right direction or if I still need to wait. Also my fermenting temps are right around 68 F. Thank you.
