I racked my ale to a secondary yesterday, this after 6 days in primary. The airlock activity was at about 3 minute intervals. After racking there was a small amount of airlock activity, but nothing signifigant.
18 hours later there seems to be none. the keyword here is seems.
My main concern is that I know oxygen will ruin my beer. In your opinion(s) do you think there is enough of a co2 layer to protect the beer from being contaminated?
I was thinking about boiling some priming sugar and adding, what are your thoughts. This has worked in the past and got the co2 moving, but I dont want to further contaminate my brew!
I think it is finished, but now just want to clear it for a few days
