I hope so. I was super OCD about sanitizing.

Could it be yeast-y stuff?

Nope. Dry hopping. All hops were in the kettle but I did use pellets.

Ok, I looked in the infection thread and couldn't find something that resembled this stuff on the top of my California Common I kegged today. Anyone know if it's an infection? I tasted the beer and it was great so I'm still gonna drink it. Just wanting to know for next time.

Thanks for the tip cluckk. Ill do that next time if I don't have it by then. When I left for work this morning the fermenter was bubbling away. I like the Speidel tank a lot. Solid and when I moved it there was no air or fluid sucked back in. The airlock is huge too. With the 7.9 gallon I don't...

Hey everyone. I'm still new to this got a some extract kits under my belt but I know the way to go is all grain. With that in mind I made a MT out of a 10 gallon rubbermaid jug. The question I have is do I really need a HLT? My reasoning is that if the strike water and sparge water are different...
