Hey everyone,

I havent brewed in a few years and just jumped back into it. I brewed a double New England IPA. I wasn’t able to separate the trub from the boil kettle so I ended up dumping all of it in, but it still didn’t seem like that much.

Here’s a picture of my fermenter on Day 1 of fermentation. Obviously there will be a lot of sediment at the bottom but this seems like an awful lot. It’s like 1/3. I did a 20 min boil.

Thoughts? Will this compact down further? It doesn’t seem like all hop particulate.

Thx a bunch!

Edward
