Hey everyone,
Quick question, I am only on my third all grain batch after a few months of extract. My question is every all-grain batch I have done, it seems that my fermentation only takes about 2-3 days max and the krausen is super small compared to when I would do extract brews. So far I have brewed two scottish ales, first attempt didn't batch sparge well and had poor efficiency, second batch numbers were better at about 70% efficiency using dry yeast S-05 maybe or 04. Third batch is a belgian wit, 77% efficiency, WLP400 liquid yeast and SG 1.050 and after only two days of good fermenation FG 1.010 but maybe only .5in of krausen. I know that seems good but im not used to such fast fermenation and little krausen. Any thing to worry about or so I just drink another homebrew haha.
Thanks everyone, much appreciated. Sorry for longer post.
