Hi Everyone,

I started an IPA brew 2 weeks ago and it seems to still be fermenting in the carboy! (I can still hear the 'gurgling'). I typically leave my brew in the carboy for two weeks and then transfer it to bottles (no 2nd fermentation done).

I am surprised it is still making noise after two weeks! Is this a problem. Do I just need to wait until it stops for a few days before I bottle it?

Thanks!
 
Without a gravity reading to ensure it's done and not just off-gassing, no one can say if it's save to bottle, or not.

It might be fermenting. It might be done.
