Wilkos lager kit 1st timer

[RLGMIlson]

hello
bought Wilkos Cerveza, followed instructions.

so far in bucket since sunday, 4 days

hydrometer arrived today ive not used it yet though.

instructions suggested 4/5 days before transferring to vessel, should i leave it longer?

i want it at least 4.5%

tips anyone,

thanks in advance.

Gonna need a lot more details than that to give you a better answer. But your already not going to get the answer you want because you didn't take a gravity reading before you put the yeast in. Can only work out alcoholic percentage using a hydrometer by using the first reading and the last reading. How much sugar did you put in? What type?

Instructions are notoriously optimistic I would leave it 2 weeks before transferring it just to be sure it's finished.

leave it ten days at least then transfer off the yeast to a secondary vessel seal and leave another week to let the yeast clean up the off smells and tastes produced by fermentation, and it will start to clear, put some were cold for a few days then bottle. bring back into the warm to carbonate for two weeks , then condition for 6 weeks minimum before drinking , i leave ten weeks minimum.
