2 Carboys, 1 Batch, Different Krausen???

[cannman]

A Celebration clone. 36 hours in.

I brewed 10 gallons of yum, split into two carboys for fermentation. Both carboys pitched with about the same amount of starter, nothing different EXCEPT after flame out I did not stir the wort (although the rolling boil does a fine job of mixing things up imho). I'm wondering if there was a stronger concentration of fermentables near the bottom of the kettle and therefore have a different Krausen for this reason.

Or I'm nuts. They are both kicking the blow-off container's a$$ and accidentally got a gas-off high changing the blow-off sanitizer.



Think there's a problem? Will I run into two different beers?

Nothing to worry about. In my experience with hoppy beers the krausen has a healthy mixture of cold break/hop goop/trub whatever you want to call it. The krausen of the second fill carboy just has a higher concentration of it. Should finish the same, maybe even a little clearer, if brulosopher's post about trub is correct.

What recipe did you use?

Thanks for the info. I'll report in a few days. Here is the original and my Beersmith printout of my Celebration Clone Brew. The figures in Beersmith are not final, obviously.

Please do. My wife said she already saw this year's release in stores. Oh how I hate how early Christmas stuff comes out. Makes sense, since they're using fresh hops. Best to get it while it's fresh, I suppose.
