hey guys and a few gals, im at day 17 on fermentation and ive noticed more bubbles since yesterday. there were plenty of bubbles day 1-4, then nothing, and at day 16 it seem to have sparked up again and started to ferment a second time... is that possible to have a late second fermentation? my roommate said he didnt disrupt the bottle and i didnt move it... maybe it got nudged an inch, who knows.
its a one gallon in the cabinet, room temp between 72-78 on any given day ( i live in Los Angeles)
not sure what the yeast was called. its Columbus and cascade hops added to the boil.
its a Brooklyn brew kit... the Everyday IPA. i followed the instructions to a T or so i thought
ive been reading that i should have a Hydrometer to get the SG and know when its done fermenting. also some say fermenting can go as long as 3 weeks so ill just have to go longer until its done bubbling?
edit: pictures are of day 17 today!
also, I did strain it really well, a 3rd time which is one more than the instructions said, is that much sediment normal? is it avoid able and how?
so many questions lol.
