I started by first batch on Saturday morning (16th Jan). On Saturday and Sunday there was a fair amount of activity from the airlock but by Tuesday morning it had almost stopped. Wednesday and today there has been no activity at all. The seals are tight and the yeast packet said active from 18-30 Celsius and it has been at 24/26 Celsius the whole time.
It is a Munich lager and does smell quite good.
I am worried about opening the bucket but can see it is settling and the instructions said 5-7 days fermenting and then it can be bottled.
What should it look like before bottling as right now the top of the wort is clearer than the bottom so something is happening. Any advice of what to do next would be great, thanks.
