How's this one going, Oblivious?

I was crawling out of the FV for the first few days, has settled back down and I roused it last night to try and keep the yeast active . I intend to give it another few weeks in the primary and then secondary for a month or so before bottling

How's this one going, Oblivious?

Racked it to secondary last night and its down to 1.018 , nice but quite strong so I can see this ine getting a bit of aging

nice byt quite storng so I can see this ine getting a bit of aging

Are you sure you haven't been overdoing the samples already?

Good job! How much do you reckon you lost to the hops in the end? (I used a similar amount recently and the hops soaked up a load of wort - maybe 3 litres or so )

I would estimate I lost a good 5 liters or so
