two weeks in to my beer de garde, i dumped trub...
started with a bunch of foam, almost like the head of a beer, then came the beer, no gooey yeast sediment that I've cleaned from my carboy, etc. just really cloudy wort with some hop residue.
really disappointed here, this was only supposed to be a "week or so" primary fermentation, followd by 4 weeks of lagering. i took a hydrometer reading earlier in the week and got a 1.036, so i increased the temps slightly.
Is this all I should expect for trub this far along?
