Just had a quick question for anyone that has used this yeast in the past.
I brewed a 2 gallon batch of the northern brewer Patersbier recipe, and pitched a whole activator pack of wyeast 3787. Took off pretty quickly, and had consistent airlock activity for close to a week.
Fast forward to 3 weeks from pitching, Bottling time (Primary for 3 weeks, no secondary). When I took the lid off the bucket it looked just like the picture on post #7 in this thread. I didn't mess with it at all, so I don't have a FG, but assuming this is done fermenting, can I go ahead and bottle, or should wait for the krausen to fall? Also, if anyone knows, is this normal behavior for this yeast strain?
Thanks
