Lots of airlock activity w/out aroma?

[dmaxdmax]

You may recall that I posted a question about how much fermentation might smell. I'm now concerned with the opposite situation. My airlock is bubbling like crazy in a 67ish degree room but to get any aroma at all I have to snort straight from the source and I get barely a whiff of bread. It's in a small room but if I didn't hear the gurgling I wouldn't know it was there.

Is there anything I should be worried about?

I'm just concerned that if it has no aroma it will have no flavor.

Don't worry about what your beer fermentation CO2 farts smell like...Relax, have a brew instead.

I didn't listen, I opened some wine instead of a brew! Oh the humanity!

No worries whatsoever.

AFAIK co2 does not have a smell to it. If you get too much of a whiff of it you will pass out though!

I didn't expect pure CO2 to smell like anything but I thought the overall aroma to be something like, you know, beer.

worry worry worry. why must new brewers look for any excuse to worry. it smells too much, it doesn't smell enough. the bubbles stopped too soon, the bubbles kept are still going too long.

OP, i'm just giving you a hard time, we've all been there, but seriously, the thing to always always keep in mind.... yeast have been turning wort into beer for a lot longer than you've been around to worry about it. they know what they're doing.

I am, by nature, a worry-wort.
