Hi Guys,

Followed the recipe as per the Coopers Website, except for i boiled the lot before pitching the yeast(Sat 21st May 4:00pm). I took the OG reding at 1050 at 21 degrees.
Stayed constant st 20-21 degrees.
It is now Tues 24th and bubbling through the air lock has stopped and my only problem is my hydrometer broke due to the touch of an idiot.
I was just wondering if there are any pointers that i coul get because the soonest i can get a new hydrometer is Friday.

Cheers,
Nathan

Nathan,

No harm will come to your brew if you leave it untill after Friday to check with the new hydrometer.

I did an Irish Stout recently and left it in the primary for 3 weeks. It was with a can of coopers dark malt. Came up really quite drinkable when I tried it last week, needing only to carbonate a little more.

Cheers,

Greg.

it'll be fine, just get your hydro on friday and resume normal operations ...

White stuff's normal. That's the yeast

In my humble opinion, more beers have been ruined by worry than anything else

Your beer will be fine.
