Cheers fellow lovers of beers. So I brewed a Nut Brown Ale last Saturday and the fermentation was quite vigorous (coming up into the air lock). I've read this is a common problem so I'm not all that worried about it, BUT...ever since Saturday night (its now 6 days later!) the foam has been built up in the top of the carboy and is showing no signs of settling. This is only my second brew so maybe its also common but my first brew a few weeks ago (Bock), settled normally and the foam dissipated after 3-4 days or so. I was planning on bottling this weekend but I feel I should wait till I get your replies on this matter. So basically, is this a problem???
