Ok so I started my hot chocolate stout, hot in two ways: ancho chili in boil, as well as cinnamon. I also added cocoa powder and Irish moss in last 5 min as well as a vanilla bean. Racking to the split fermentors was like syrup, very thick. One is also fermenting a little quicker/ started faster. Tell me what you think. I just want to make sure all is going to plan, as this is only my third brew.
The problem is one has built a chocolate trub type thing on top of the foam. It also went from a deep black to a chocolate brown color. There is an inch of sediment on the bottom of each fermentor, and so far all signs of fermentation are normal. Just looking for some answers, making sure I didn't mess anything up! Thanks for all the help!
