This must be one of the most commong beginner questions. The simple
answer is that the yeast has done its job. Just let the beer sit in the
bucket for week more, and you'll be all right, even if doesn't make
another bobble.
I just brewed a bitter, reusing the yeast from the previous brew. In
less than an hour, the bucket was not bubbling, it was snorking like an
old dragon in its sleep. And 24 hours later, not a blob coming out of
the bucket. If that would happen to all my brews, I would be happy
indeed, for there is nothing better than a good aggressive start for the
fermentation, and if it is all over in a day, all the better. I still
leave that beer in the primary bucket until the next weekend, and then
rake it over to a secondary for a few more weeks, before I keg it and
let it mature. Should be a decent beer to bring to the xmas lunches when
they get in season...
So, don't worry about it, for
it will be beer anyway!
