I am wondering if this is correct. It is a bit like a pepper burn i guess. Today is day 13 and it seemed much better. I think I am going to leave it in there to tomorrow, move it to a keg, cold crash it then move to another keg and carb.
Strange question then, could this either A) be because of a different fermenter or B) because I hosed my starter?
I have had this issue all 4 times I have filled my two new Speidel Fermenters. Could they somehow be causing the process to slow as compared to my previous carboys? They have a ton more headspace compared to the carboys, could that slow things down drastically? Also strange I have another batch currently in a new Fermentasaurus fermenter. It is only day 6 and it is all cleared ups on top and the trub is tightly packed at the bottom. It looks like my previous batches I did in the carboys after day 6-7. Meanwhile on day 13 still lots of stuff on the surface in the speidel.
Another question if I transfer this to a keg, crash and transfer to another keg, will it just bring along any crap with it anyway?
This is a possibility too. Whether yeast of hops something is sticking around. My prior experience though with WY1318 was it moved quickly and cleaned up quickly. I had moved 5-7 straight batches into keg between 6-10 days and all of those prior batches tasted very good to great. So not sure why it would slow down now? Again wondering if the change from carboy to Speidel is somehow responsible.
