I put down a coopers heritage lager with their yeast and made with 500g dextrose and 500g LME. The initial reading was 1070 when I put it down, the fermenter was wrapped in a blanket with temp hovering about 18c during day and prob cooler during the night, in the last 2 days I have had 2 successive readings of 1015 and as it had stopped bubbllng and even though it was quite cloudy I believed it was ready to bottle, which I did.... now the bad part... on taking down details of the bottling on my brewing log I realised that it had only been brewing for 5.5 days and not the 8 days I thought it had. So guys break the news to me gently, whats going to happen now... what can I expect in the short term....and will the stubbies I bottled settle down over time? it's a bloody shame really as it tasted so nice in the testing ..... also I heard that coopers yeast is an ale yeast...yes or no....... thanks guys for any help or advice
