Today makes 2 weeks that my APA has been fermenting. It is still showing signs of airlock activity at a rate of about 1 bubble per minute. I know that airlock activity is not a good indicator of fermentation, but I have never had any activity at this point in the ferment. I mean if it is still bubbling then something is still going on right? I generally don't even take a gravity reading for about 2.5 weeks just before I cold crash to prepare for bottling. I have made this kit several time as it is our house beer. The only thing I can think of out of the ordinary is i left my yeast in the fridge until I started chilling but I bloomed in 70 degree water and pitched at 65 airlock activity started within 12-14 hrs ferment temp 60-64 degrees. anyone think there maybe a problem?
