Hi all, I am new to home brewing well I just have my first attempt fermenting now. I got myself one of the Tooheys New Micro Brew Kits. I did everything as per the instructions (Saturday, miday) and about 15 hours later the air lock started to bubble (Sunday, morning), about once every 30 seconds then it picked up to about once every 1-2 seconds (Sunday late morning) and last night (Monday night) it started to slow down, to about once every 30 seconds.. I went to bed and this morning it had stopped altogether.
Is this normal? Or did something go wrong? I have been told that it takes 4-7 days to ferment, and that when it stops bubbling it has stopped fermenting. Is that true?
So have I failed miserably at my first attempt to brew? Or is this normal and I should just ignore it and start checking the specific gravity??
