krausen in my secondary?
Posted: Tue Aug 06, 2013 1:17 pm
Hi all,
I'm very new at brewing (on only my 2nd batch), but I'm noticing something which I can't explain based on everything I've read. I'm hoping one of you all could help me out here....
SO I put on a batch of NG's 1820 Authentic IPA. Everything went great in the primary: yeast action within 1 day, good krausen, etc. After ~1 week I transferred to the carboy and decided to get crazy and dry-hop the sucker too. All good, so far. I've been letting it sit in the secondary for ~2 weeks now and it seemed to start to clear, but then last evening I noticed that there seem to be some more krausen-like action happening on the surface. What is going on here?
thanks
Chris
