I have searched with limited results for an answer. Now I pose it to you all.
I have a AHS Blue Moon (Belgian Wit) extact clone that has been in the primary since 2/29/09. I took a hydro reading last night and it is @ 1.010. I was going to bottle this on Saturday (3 weeks from pitching), but I still have a good layer of krausen on top. The FG reading suggests that fermentation is complete, but is it better to wait until all of the krausen has fallen, or can I rack to bottling bucket thru the krausen. I used WLP 400 as the yeast (washed from a previous batch, 1 liter starter) in it.
Thanks,
