So I racked off my porter to secondary tonight.
Some precedings:
First All Grain Batch
Choco Porter
4oz Hershey's Unsweetend Cocoa
1335 Wyeast Brit Ale II
6 Gallon Plastic Primary
6 Gallon Plastic Secondary
Color was spot on, but the when i dove in to smell that wonderfull fermenting homebrew smell we all love I got a face full of Fusels!!!! As you could guess my dissapointment... after racking to secondary the smells were lessened but still apparent.
Could this just be natural fermentation smells? Trub?
Should I be worried?
FTR: I ferment on a air vent in which our air is set to 72 so logic would tell me the passing air is lower than 72. I am not sure what the actual temp of the fermenter is, but I have done this in previous brews and have never had a problem. This is my first time using Wyeast 1335 Though?
Thanks in Advance
