California Common - Primary fermentation time

[todmclemore]

I'm in primary fermentation with a California Common, using White Labs 810 San Francisco yeast.

It has been in primary for 12 days. It's currently in my outside fridge at 52-54 degrees. The fermentation lock is bubbling once every 30 seconds or so.

Am I still good in primary? Should I wait until the fermentation slows down to once every two minutes to take it to secondary, or is it okay to take it a secondary today or tomorrow?

i have never brewed a cali common, but you likely don't need to transfer to a secondary at all unless you are going to add something like fruit to it. Leave it in primary for an extra week or so.

you should take a gravity reading, it could be finished and just degassing dissolved CO2.
