beer -just brew it
i am working on my second lager style beer
it has been two weeks today since pitching the yeast(mauri brew 497) dry lager yeast from a 1 litre starter.
i had bubbles in the air lock after 6 hrs so i put the fermenter in my cold box with ice and got the temp down to 50 degrees over the next two days
i popped the lid today to take a gravity reading before the diacetyl rest ,but to my surprise found 1" of krausen still there
this is only my second lager attempt,the first had no krausen at the two week mark.
is this normal?
starting gravity was 1.050
