Hi Everybody, is started my second Cream Stout kit after the first one was my biggest success to date.

Brew went on 08th Sept. The instructions say to leave for 6 days and the gravity remains below 1014.

I have checked today(15th), so 7 days and the gravity is only 1020. I didn't take a SG, so not how much it's fell by.

Question is do I leave it for longer before I keg it

Also any tips on kegging as it'll be my first time as usually use bottles

Thanks
Gaz
 
We usually say allow 2 weeks for fermentation, 2 weeks for carbonation and a further 2 weeks to condition.

It can be done in less time with correct temperature control etc, but a lot of kit instructions are telling you how fast it can be done in ideal conditions, not how long it really takes in a bucket in the shed/garage/kitchen.
