is my brew done?

[malty_me]

My brew has been going for two weeks now. The apple smell has gone and so have all the bubbles. Og 1.045 _ tested it yesterday and its was 1.011 and again today 1.011. Very clear and tastes quite nice. Just wondering what the abv is and wether its ready to bottle?

Yes I would bottle as long as it is clear. :thumb:

If it is still 1.011 tomorrow you should be good to go :)

ABV calculator can be found on the CALCULATORS page... see top left? Yup, up there. :)

Sounds like its ready for bottling it should be around 4.5 percent

Thanks everyone. Just bottled it (took me an hour and a half :S lol) smells and looks lovely. Can't wait to try some in a couple of weeks. Oh and just for anyone that's wondering its a bitter kit with half the sugar replaced with dried malt extract.

How did it taste? - I had a little taste of mine when I was putting it in the keg and it was OK, got much better though

It tasted quite nice. I know it will be 10 times better when its carbonated, has a head and has had some time to condition. Plus it was at room temp which I never like beers that warm lol
