I'm currently brewing my 2nd beer kit, a Woodforde's Bure Gold. The instructions say 7-10 days fermentation, but its been 15 days now and it is still slowly bubbling away. I also have an ispindel in there:
I suspect the numbers themselves are out, because I didn't calibrate it myself (it was sold as calibrated, but perhaps that was an exaggeration), but the trend is still down, which I understand to mean (combined with continued bubbling) that fermentation continues.
Is this indicative of a problem?
If not, what do you far more experienced brewers suggest I do if this is still going on by Sunday when I'm due to go on holiday for 2 weeks? ie leave it, keg it anyway, something else? Its in a brew fridge fwiw so I have complete control over the temperature.
