Hi,
I am currently brewing a Festival Razorback IPA. The instructions say brew for 5 days then add the extra hops for another 5 days !!!
I am currently on my 20th day at the temperatures advised [22-24 degrees] and the hops have been added since day 8. Although the bubbling has reduced dramatically, it is still going every 4-6 minutes. I have taken a hydrometer reading last Saturday where it was sitting at 1.010 [It's supposed to reach 1.005].
We are going away on Sunday for Easter so my question is this :-
Can I rack this beer into a 2nd fermenting vessel to take it off the trub and allow it to drop further to prevent any damage to it? I would be away for 9 days so hopefully it would be clear and stopped fermenting completely on my return? It would not have the heat belt round it at this time but I would keep a fleece jacket around it instead.
Kind Regards,
TrevTheBev
