Hi guys, Im a new brewer and new to homebrewtalk. I searched the forums and couldn't find an answer so hopefully this isn't a repeat.
This is my 4th batch and I don't secondary ferment. Basically, my beer has been sitting in the Primary for 25 days (I plan to bottle after 28). After about 10 days or so all the fermenting stopped and the krausen fell back and the airlock quit bubbling.
However, a couple days ago (around day 22) when I went to check on the temperature (67 deg) I noticed that there was a thin layer of bubbles/foam on the top and the airlock started bubbling again every 45 seconds or so. Now, 3 days later the bubbles/foam are still at the top. All of my other batches the top has looked really clear which is why I'm curious.
What does this mean? Should I wait for it to clear up again to bottle?
Thanks for the help guys
