air lock question

The air lock should bubble at first. After 2-3 days it will slow down quite a bit. Don't worry your beer is still fermenting. Also ckeck and make sure your lid is sealed on tight, sometimes the gas escapes from there. Don't take the lid off. I know it's temping to see what's going on, but leave it sealed. Open it only when you're ready to bottle/keg.

Good luck, let me know how it progresses.
