Sorry if this had been posted before, but I couldn't find a thread searching for it. I made Revvys take on the Kentucky Common. I made up 10 gallons and pitched the same yeast (so5) in both. Brewed on Friday ad today; one with 4.5 gallons is really cleared out ad the other with 5.5 galllons looks pretty cloudy. I have only done one other 10 gallon batch. Should I worry now; or just wait to see if the other one clears I a week or so?
 
Just wait a little longer. It sounds like it hasn't even been a week yet. I would expect the 5.5 gals to take a little longer just because there are more fermentables. Besides, no 2 fermentations are the same.
 
I gave the carboy a rock back and forth and the blowoff tube (i run a small blowoff) started bubbling like a mother again! I guess I have plenty of time to wait.
