Should I RDWHAHB?

[lemmiwinks]

Although I don't have any bottled yet, I could have a Port Wipeout or Mongo if I so desired now that they distribute to NJ

But I digress, my 2nd batch is a PM variation of Denny Conn's Bourbon Vanillla Porter.
Here's the recipe:

5 lbs. Light DME
Grains:
2.5 lbs. Munich 10L
1.5 lbs. 2-Row
1.0 lbs. Amber malt
1.0 lbs Caramel 120
0.75 lbs chocolate malt
0.5 lbs caramel 45

I pitched 1.5 packets of re-hydrated Safale US-05 and had vigorous airlock bubbling in less than 12 hours. That went on for about 48 hours.
Woke up this AM - no airlock acitivity and no krausen (didn't open the bucket but popped the airlock and peeked through the grommeted hole, got a whiff of the brew and it smells awesome). Ambient temp in the room is low to mid 60's. Yeast was re-hyrdrated in 80° water (then sat for 1 hour prior to pitching) and the wort was at 70° at time of pitching.

I'm very hesitant to open up and do a gravity reading this early.
My OG prior to aeration and pitching was 1.082 and estimated FG is 1.021.
Is it possible that the yeast blew through the fermentables already?

Yep... RDWHAHB.

Let it sit for at least a week... then take a hydro reading.

At the very least,initial fermentation is done. Give it a week,the test to see if it's close to FG.

Patience - all is well grasshopper

Thanks guys.
I knew it, just tough to chill when I've got nothing bottled yet.
I'm like JoJo the Idiot Circus Boy with a new pet waiting to bottle some homebrew up.
