I made a Porter a couple of weeks ago following my normal processes and sanitation methods. After about a week in the secondary fermenter, a scary surface layer is developing and I am worried I am losing my beer. Still smells like beer, but whats floating at the top is not something I've ever encountered before.
Starting Gravity: 1.060
Gravity at Racking: 1.022
It seems that fermentation has stopped because the my current gravity has not changed in a couple of days.
I don't know whether to give up on this batch or if there is something else I can do. I have pictures but have not been able to figure out how to include in my post.
Any beer or picture posting advice out there.....
Below is a link to my profile which has a couple of pics.
