working with a VR Gewurztraminer kit....
checked on monday 5/16 and SG read 1.020, kit says to rack to carboy at the 1.010 mark.
i had to leave town till this afternoon, figured i would rack then. the SG reading was .992.
Did i wait too long to rack to carboy, and should i do something to fix the issue, or is it ok to just rack and continue with the directions?
thanks
ETA: the directions read that i should wait 10 days approx. with the secondary fermentation before starting the degassing and clearing process. they suggest getting stable readings of .996 or less. Since i am already below that do i continue with secondary fermentation or do i start the clearing process?
