Coopers Irish Stout FG

[mancer62]

I brewed a Coopers Irish Stout 15 days ago using mangrove Jack's enhancer 2 [1.2kg] along with mangrove Jack's kveik voss yeast. I was obviously looking for a fast fermenting brew but has certainly been the case. I admittedly never fermented at high temps and just brewed it in my kitchen with a padded rainjacker over it.
Even today when I moved my blow off tube in the bottle of water it's in bubbles appeared and broke the surface. This cannot be correct can it? I took a hydrometer reading a few.mins ago and it read 1016 (I don't 100% trust my hydrometer) but 1016 doesn't seem.right to me.
Any advice would be appreciated ty..

The gas you witnessed coming out in the fermenter will also be in the sample tube, always pour sample into a cup and tip back and forth into another cup a dozen times to degas it. Pour into tube and take a reading. The gas in the sample will buoy up the hydrometer giving a false reading.
