Hi all.
Just need a bit of advice for my current batch of brew that is in the primary fermentation stage. This is my fifth batch, I have 1 successful batch and 4 fails due to bad temp control and an infection. This current batch is a Coopers Real Ale (exp 07/2014) with the Coopers Enhancer 2 in place of sugar. Running a standard 23Lt home brew kit.
So I pitched the yeast and sealed the fermentation vessel this past Sat 08/12 ( temp at time of pitching yeast was 22/24 Celsuis ). Everything looked good until this morning ( Mon morning 10/12 ) when I noticed a large build up of foam on top of my wort. Is this normal? There was no floating bits of sediment in the wort as far as I could see, my last infection had huge bits of sediment in the wort. There is just a lot of foam on the top and the last infection had the same amount of foam. The only sediment build up that could see was around the Krausen Kollar. Am I being paranoid or this batch heading down the drain?
