Hello everyone. I did my first brew last week and as a novice not too sure if I’ve made a mess. The brew was an all grain clone of Leffe. Everything seemed to go well and I put it in the fermenter 8 days ago, og was 1070 against target of 1065. It has been bubbling away but not as vigorously as I thought it would. I’ve been using the spare bedroom and with the weather its been nice during the day but dropping at night time. Yesterday the bubbles stopped altogether so this morning I’ve had a look at it. It is not as clear as it was originally and when measured the gravity is 1015 against target of 1010. It also had a strange smell, not too strong but I think it could be yeast. I’ve racked it into a different fv by opening the tap and unknowingly took a lot of the sediment as well. I’ve now got a heater pad under it and am sat here with fingers crossed. Have I done summat wrong ot is this normal
