Just to give you an idea of my experience, I am on my 7th extract brew right now.
I brewed an Oatmeal Chocolate Stout that I let sit in the Primary for 7 days. And when I transferred my beer to the secondary this last Saturday (Feb 2), the air lock was bubbling once every 3-5 minutes when I did the transfer.
My question is, what are the chances that the yeast started fermenting faster again after they initially slowed? The air lock has picked back up bubbling (once every 2 minutes give or take) and there was a nice layer of foam on top of the beer again.
What concerns me is, yesterday when I checked my secondary there were just a few floaties/minimal foam lacing and I am afraid that what is happening might be a sign of an infection. I just haven't seen/heard of something like this happening before
Thanks in advance
