I harvested some Conan from a few alchemist cans. fermentation went as expected. However as I transferred it to a mason jar, i'm noticing a funky smell. Maybe mildewy? hard to describe. Does Conan have a particular odor?
 
i harvested it once it smelled estery but in a good way..the finished beer had some fruity esters which i expected but never had mildewy or funky at all..but i would not worry about it yeast is not the best smelling stuff on earth
 
Question what was the og of the fist step of the starter?
 
it's settled and looks like a solid sample, nothing funky , nice yeast layer settled on the bottom, hazy beer sitting on top. fermentation smelt....very deep, almost super malty. Should I pitch it?
 
i would pitch it and see what happens..good luck
