I'm brewing a holiday beer from a kit. Following the instructions it stayed in the primary (ale pail bucket) for 3 weeks, then I was going to bottle it but it was very cloudy and tasted very (very) yeasty. So I racked it to a carboy, it's been in there for 3 days now. At first it was very cloudy, then it started to clear and I thought it was all good. Now it's cloudy again and there's a little bit of white stuff laying on top. Did I do something bad? Should I just let it sit for a few more days and see what happens?
This is what it looked like the first day, very cloudy:
Day 2, it looks like everything was starting to settle:
Today, it's back to being cloudy and the line between cloudy and not-so-cloudy is higher than it was yesterday:
I screwed up the first gravity reading so I don't know what it was after brewing but when I moved it to the carboy it was 1.010 - the instructions say the final gravity is supposed to be 1.011.
