So...I brewed a German Wheat beer on Saturday and when I went to go smell the fermentation lock today I was taken back. I smelled a slight banana, but there was something else present that burned the back of my throat when I inhaled. It was very strong and I have no idea what it was. Any thoughts?
Also, I brewed 10 gallons and split it into two fermentors, each with a different yeast. One fermenter blew the fermentation lock off the top and spilled over the carboy while the other is just fermenting at a normal pace with a normal amount of krausen. I think I know the answer, but is this normal and totally dependent on the yeast?
