So I brewed 3 days ago. Two batches, first time using lager yeast (White Labs American and Octoberfest. I set them up at room temp to get them started and then moved them to the cool garage last night. What I noticed is that there is a strange "lemony" odor coming from the airlocks on the primary fermenters. It seems to be coming from both of them. I have never noticed a strong odor coming from my ales that I have made. Any ideas or is it money down the drain? I sanitize with StarSan 1oz to 5 gal, as stated on the bottle.
