After 2 days of bubbles on my air lock it completly stopped...I have it on a better bottle so I can see inside and I can see alot of action inside but no bubbles are coming thru the air lock...I checked for leaks and it seems pretty tight..is that normal?
 
I'm not sure that its normal, but its certainly fine. Even though you've checked, you must have a leak somewhere, but I wouldn't be concerned about it. If there's action in the carboy you have fermentation.
 
A lack of bubbles in the airlock means NOTHING.

The yeast are busy. Let them do their thing. This is an 8 week process. Two days in the carboy gets you, what, 1/30 of the way to bottling?

Airlock = NOTHING.

Relax.
 
it just means you do have a leak. gas will always go the path of least resistance. even if its a leak you cannot detect.

it happens. nothign to worry about. leave it for a month :)
 
same here, I can see little bubbles...I know she's working..:rockin: Airlock is dead but I'll give her 8 weeks to prove me wrong..I can smell that it's working..:ban:
