Did a leftovers extract brew which went text book apart from the loss of my hydrometer. Anyhow I pitched a wyeast kolsch yeast which I've had in the fridge for ages and although it took three days it's been fermenting nicely. After three weeks here was still a shallow krausen but as I needed the bucket I racked it to a better bottle secondary. However....two things are bothering me. Firstly, the beer was rather sweet, indicating I hadn't fermented enough. Secondly, I kept he yeast as I wanted to use it for my first all grain kolsch recipe....this was put in a sterile air tight container in the fridge.....this now has a two inch krausen on it (to about 3/4inch of wort) and is going some, the container is very swollen.... given this I'm assuming there is a lot of unfermented goodness in the beer in my secondary.
So question is should I:
Repitch the yeast I farmed off back into the brew and see what happens?
Pitch some new yeast? Not keen to do this really.
Leave it? There are White patches forming on the top of the secondary which may mean I get a secondary fermentation anyway.
