Hi, so I used:

14lbs of raw Zambian forest honey
5 gallons of boiled then cooled tap water
and 5 teaspoons of Youngs Brew Home Brewing Super Wine Yeast Compound For High Alcohol (1 per gallon)

I mixed the honey with the water once it had cooled down a bit, then pitched the yeast when it had cooled further down to room temperature. That was on the 28th of April, the airlock bubbled like crazy for a week, then died down, around 10 days after pitching the yeast there was no activity in the airlock.

I just ordered a siphon and some finnings, and will be transferring it over to a glass carboy for secondary once those items have arrived and I've used the SUPERKLAR 24h - 25L to clear it up a bit.

My only question really is, is this yellow bubble surface stuff normal? I opened it today just to have a peek and it's like this (pic attached).
