i know how to take a reading on the hydrometer but dont have a clue what it means. i know you are spost to start high and end low. but does the lower number mean you have a lower alcohol content or not. for example my batch started at 1.080 and i checked today and its at 1.035 after 4 days. the reason i checked it is there are almost no bubbles from the airlock. my local brewshop owner says it should slow and to let it work for another week and a half but to keep a look at the hydrometer every few days till it stops moving.
