I made an extract kit stout on the 11th dec. Last friday 11th jan I took it from the cupboard under the stairs to keg it in my corny but when I put.it in the kitchen the airlock started bubbling and is still doing so albeit slowly (5 weeks 3 days after making it)
Is this normal?
The OG was.1042 and when I was going to keg last fri 11th jan it was 1014.....I presume it will be somewhat less now. Is this all well and normal?
 
Well it could be a temperature difference, if it's higher now some of the co2 will come out of solution giving the old phantom ferment. I'd get the bugger kegged. Any idea what the final gravity was predicted at - you're at 3.7% booziness at the moment, or what I call a "school run" beer.
