My beer has been in the primary for about 10 days. Yesterday I took a sample to check the gravity and it looked like the fermentation went fine as the OG was about 1.072 and the gravity reading yesterday was about 1.018.
However, there was still a layer of kraussen, or a yeasty like film about an 1/8 of an inch thick sitting on top of the beer. The beer smelt and looked fine under this layer, but I didn't do a taste test. I was just wondering if this layer of kraussen or whatever will fall to the bottom within another week or so? Is there anything I can do to help it along? Also, I will not be racking to a secondary.
thanks
