Also, welcome to the homebrewing family!

an update on the wheaton and son homebrewing experience
Today, Ryan and I racked (that's fancy homebrew language for "moved") our beer from its primary fermentation into its secondary fermentation. We know now that we probably moved it a little early, but since we're learning and everything, we'll just chalk it up to experience and hope for the best....
No, you probably didn't really screw up at all. Don't bother pitching more yeast. The active yeast is microscopic, so you've still got several billion of them in the secondary.
If you're concerned, wait a week and take a gravity reading again. You'll probably see that it changed. What you are describing is basically my standard procedure for most beers - one week in primary, one week in secondary. I don't even bother with gravity readings anymore!
