Hey y'all,
Ok, so I've got my flame suit on ready (and not just cos I'm a fireman !)...Warning... kind of noob question below......
I guess I'm just looking for that pat on the shoulder saying 'there there, it'll be ok' kind of reassurance.
On 9th May I made up a Coopers Mexican Cerveca as normal, but decided to swap the can yeast for US-05, made to 23 litres. I rehydrated the yeast prior to pitching, and that was done at 22 degrees. OG reading was 1046 prior to pitching the yeast.
The airlock went well, not a huge krausen but it was ok.
I dry hopped 20gm of Amarillo pellets after 4 days, which drove the airlock into overdrive.
My question is.... it's been 14 days now and the airlock is STILL going... ok so it's slowed up a helluva lot the last few days, but my SG's have been 1008 since 21st May....
Will I have any issues leaving for a few more days - the weekend does make it easier to bottle ! And I'm guessing (and hoping) that the airlock activity will have finished !!
As always guys & gals... thx for your responses.
Cheers
