ESB batch #2 rack to secondary
This one spent 2 full weeks in primary. At the end, bubbling had barely decreased to 60s/bubble. Similar to the 1st batch, this is a slow fermentation.
At racking, SG was 1016
==> ABV is 4.8%
==> AA is 69%
Added 0.25 oz Kent Goldings (dry-hopped)
The bubbling continues between 60 and 120s/bubble. We'll see how it is after the trip to England. At least another 2 weeks in the secondary.
I tried harvesting the yeast from the bottom. I filled a bottle with the sludge, and put it in the fridge. It's probably more hops than yeast, but I'll get some DME, and see if it will breed.
