first time ive seen this.
-brewed a milk stout
-used a wine degasser to aerate. I give a 1min burst, let it settle, clean a little, return and hit for another minute. i do this at least 3-5 times.
-1.25 l starter
but the last time i hit the wort with the degasser there was a lot of foam, figured it was nothing, yeast was pitched and put on the airlock. few hours later went back to look on it, the foam has not subsided.
-there is a cake on the bottom, looks mostly just trub but its really dark to its hard to tell.
-cant imagine its fermenting this fast.
-didnt change anything but have never seen the foam not drop back in and act like this?
i can upload a pic, but anyone have thoughts?
im assuming any foam is oxygen anyhow so this cant be bad?
should i remove the airlock and use tinfoil or the foam block i use for starters?
should i just rdwhahb?
thanks
