Hello guys, I made beer this weekend and found a problem on the boil. Before starting to boil, began to form a "gum" that I tried to remove it, but every time I removed back to form this "gum". What should I do?
Never heard that it can produce off flavors. Control the heat to keep the foam from overflowing the pot. It will subside. There is no reason to try to remove it.
I also found this standard have happened to me, but I was curious and started researching until it appeared in a blog to say it was one of the off-flavorsYup hot break, although I have heard the early forming part of it called "foop" before. Either way, looks totally normal to me, brew on.
Unfortunately I do not understand what you're trying to tell me. Sorry :/Just keep a spray bottle near by and spray if when you are getting the boil under control, spray knocks that right back down.
its an easy way to reduce the boil over, as others have said its normal and will settle to the bottom of the boil kettle.
I think I have a problem .. My pot of boiling / mashing has a pipe under a pot that connects to a water pump. Perhaps to turn on the water pump to pass the wort into the fermenter, the turb which is in the bottom of the pot will get you to the fermenter.Probably the trub lipids and fatty acids leading to oxidation (hot break eventually becoming trub), which on the homebrew has routinely been shown not to be an issue. And leaving it in the kettle is fine to prevent, no need to skim. But skimming may reduce the trub amount later on.

I will not worry about it on the boil .. I have a cylindroconical fermenter 15 gallons.At homebrew scale it doesn't matter if it makes it to the fermenter. Don't worry about it is what we're trying to say. In a 120bbl cylindroconical fermenter it can be a problem, but not in a 5, 10, 15 gallon batch. All the studies and blind tastings of homebrew that I've see show no statistical flavor or stability difference whether trub is filtered out before the fermenter, or allowed to go to the fermenter.
