No. 9 Fermentation complete

As I said by Sunday the fermentation appeared to have stopped, this made me quite worried as it was so sudden, I was sure it was somehow stuck. Now today I've measured the FG and it's 1010 at 20C, (21C as indicated by the foil thermometer, this seems affected by the warm bathroom). Anyway, it now appears I can remove the barrel from the bathroom and score some girlfriend points. She's not a big fan of beer in the bathroom. Weird.

As a side note the other yeast was pitched into 1l starter on Friday and has now slowed to almost nothing again. I'll bottle it into two separate yeast bottles and store it for a while before brewing a beer kit later, probably. I'm also trying Chemipro Oxi to sterilise the bottles.
