Hello all! First time brewing a beer, and have a few questions about the fermentation stage.
The bucket I got in a set didn't have a hole for an airlock, so I've had to leave it unclipped on one side a little to let the gasses out. (I'll be getting a better one for next time!)
This is the 7th day of fermentation. The 5th day the reading was 1020, and the 6th day was 1020, and I'll take another reading later today on the hydrometer. I don't have the initial first reading.View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1441526261.586813.jpg
I can't tell whether fermentation has stopped? Mine is meant to be 1014 apparently.
I'll add some pictures of my brew too for any advise.
Thank you!
