Started this last week, I have read in other threads that it goes off like a rocket usually, however I am finding that fermentation is a little slow, it is bubbling very slowly and a good head of foam appeared this seems to have dropped back. I have a temp of 22 degrees. This is after less than a week in the primary.

brewed this one as my first kit brew 3 years ago, it needs at least 8 weeks to be ready in my opinion, I bottled it and it took at least 8 weeks after fermentation had finished to be drinkable.

Hope you have better luck than I did with this one! It's the first kit in 20+ kits I've done that I had to throw out...
Fermented for 15 days came out at 7% batch primed with 100g sugar and bottled. After 3/4 weeks in the bottle they started to taste more and more alcoholic, I mean like taking a shot of whiskey but in a bad way. Broke my heart to throw them out but something went wrong somewhere
