Pumpkin wart

[The great fran]

Hi all,
I am new to brewing. I gave a pumpkin recipe a try and it seems like the water sperates from the pumpkin mash fairly quickly. The question I would like answered is this normal? Thanks in advance!

I don't understand what you are describing. Are you putting the pumpkin in the mash and water is separating from it?

I am sorry. I cooked the mash and placed it into the primary fermentor. Within ten minutes it seems like the mash is at the bottom and all the water is now at the top.

After mashing, did you separate the wort from the grains/mash?

How did you do the mash? You should have mashed the grains, removed the liquid from the grains and then boiled, adding your hops, and then put in the fermentor. Could you go through your brew day step by step?

Hey all! Thanks for the replies. Turns our everything worked out after the yeast started doing their thing. I guess I just got a little paranoid. Thanks!

What I'm deducing from the info you gave is that the trub was separating from the wort in the fermenter. This is normal. Glad the yeast started to do their thing! Cheers!
