I cooked up a Belgian witbier earlier this month using an extract recipe and after 20 days the kraeusen has fallen but still is quite thick on top of the fermenter. Is this normal for a witbier? I used WYeast Belgian Witbier 3944.
I was going to take a gravity reading to see where I am at but feel that I should wait until the kraeusen has receded more....but am also getting impatient to take a gravity reading (and enjoy the sample) and get on with bottling this batch.
Anyone else experience such a long-lasting kraeusen when brewing witbiers?
