Hey guys, I just cooked up my first batch about 48 hours ago. I made a British pale ale with white labs yeast and have it sitting with an airlock in my bucket for fermentation. I didn't see the airlock making any clicks like I thought it would, and after 48 hours I became suspicious, so I cracked it open, and I saw some nice looking brown/tan krausen on top with some green all around, just kind of a forest green. Me being as inexperienced as I am, just to calm my nerves, is that normal coloration or is that the color if an infection? I cleaned everything well, but I'm just checking.
I can't wait to transfer it to the secondary, get it in bottles a little later and start drinking homebrew.
Anyway, just wanting to calm my nerves if I can, and yes, I'm having a beer right now; so its not that bad =).
