i have recently started my first blonde lager and as my LBS suggested i started in a fermentation bucket. after a bit of research i learnt that a lot of people only use a carboy so I racked to my carboy earlier then suggested to keep it safer from infection. the first day i was getting a lot of bubbles in my air lock (roughly one every 5 seconds) and when i checked today and yesterday it had dropped to about 1 bubble every 25 seconds. and there is very little foaming activity happening. i do have a small yeast cake at the bottom of the carboy and it sat in the bucket for about 2 days and the carboy for 4. my question is should the bubbling decrease that quickly? and if not should i try anything to fix it?
