Brewed this morning and for the third time, that I have noticed, I have some strange "floaties" appearing when I get to the boil stage. Third time in about 30 something brews but maybe I just haven't noticed before!
Maybe a coincidence but the last three brews have had stepped mashes which I hadn't done before.
I've been led to believe that it's simply a chain of proteins that have linked together and it's nothing to worry about (the brews have been fine). The photo is a bit blurred and looks like some alien life form.
Any advice - do I need to be concerned?
I brew in a Grainfather and think I'm doing everything right in terms of process cleanliness etc.
Two recipes have been for a 150 Lashes clone and one for A Beer Garden Ale.
(sorry about the size of the photo!)
Thanks
Ray
