So i'm not too concerned but this is my first experience with wheat beer.
Started out with OG 1.049 and pitched one vial of WLP300 Hefe... straight into the primary after a good swishing.. Fermentation started within several hours and actually forced some of the sanatizing solution out from the airlock. It remained at 64 degrees the whole time. I checked it daily.
I'm at 10 days right now and FG was at 1.010 perfect right where i want it. Here's the kicker... the yeast cake seemed to be on the TOP? now my hops were sort of spread out around the top but mostly sat at the bottom where i expected to cultivate the yeast cake.
I continued to Rack it and put the airlock on the secondary it Smells amazing and i tasted it and Banana was dominant with no funk. My worry is about the no yeast cake??... is this normal for this strain of yeast?? Anyone else get this result?
If i have infection how long will it take to show up in my secondary (glass carboy)? i'm guessing a few days?... i'm looking to leave it in the secondary fro 5 days or so to help clear a bit then kegging it and aging for a few months...
