doing a cooopers sparkling ale according to the recipe on the back
1.7kg of sparkling ale
1.5tin LME
500gram LDME
350gram dex
and ive dry hopped it with 10grams of POR.
anyway its been in the fermenter for 2 weeks now and its still bubbling...BUT the FG doesnt seem to be dropping. infact, its done some weird things. i took one reading about a week ago and it said it was down to 1007(but could have just been cos it was my first reading and the beer in the tap thing wasnt showing an accurate reading?). but now its sitting at a solid 1010-1011. hasnt changed for 3 days but it keeps bubbling - quite slowly though. maybe one bubble each min.
so do i leave it for another few days? OR get to bottling it tomorrow....if it still reads the same gravity reading tomorrow that is.
