Hello everybody
This is my second batch. Muntons Gold 2 can pilsner, ale yeast.
This is asked here million times but...anyway. Bubbling seems a little bit too active - 2-4 times per minute. It is 15th day and I bottled. Because the SG has been the same for 3 days - 1.011. Measured with hydrometer. No changes. But airlock activity was the same like 7 days. OG was 1038. Taste is good, smell is good. Temperature has been constant 69,8F. Recipe says it is ok to bottle if OG is constant below 1.014.
First time I did the same kit and it was on primary for 9 days, FG was 1.012 and airlock slowed day by day and finally stopped, but not this time. Although yes, first days the activity was bubble per second. All similar conditions as this time. I have read tons of posts but all report muuch less airlock activity (if any). I know, airlock is not an indicator does fermentation still going on but still a little bit worried - bottle bombs possibility
I hope I didn't bottle to early?
A little bit hard to believe it is CO2 which escapes through airlock (some say then it is about 1 bubble per minute or eveh per hour)., but may be really...or what else can cause this?
