So, I have two starters going out for a Berliner Weisse, Brett C and Lacto D. They are going since 2-3 days now.
Lacto smells... sour and acid, as expected, great.
But Brett C smells like... I dont know. I do have some fruity hints, some tartness/sourness, but in overall, it smells like vomit or dirty socks juice.
Normal or not?
It's a 1.2L starter of 1030 pils DME wort + yeast nutrients, on a stir plate in a 2000ml erlenmeyer flask. It this White Lab Brett C.
