Howdy,
Last night brewed or attempted a Zombie dust IPA clone and set it aside in 20L cube till the fermentor's done dry hoping the previous batch.
Today as I walked in for a beer the cube looked odd,
Appears to have floaties, this is the first time I've practiced my whirlpool technique with this many hops. Additionally the first time I've used Whirlfloc tablets and a yeast suppliant in the boil.
All of which could explain this cloudy, suspended particle phenomenon.
Wort tastes good, maybe a little bitter than I expected but that was some decent hop additions.
The cube hasn't expand so thinking... hoping it's not infected.
So you knowledgeable folk think this is just cold / hot break, hops and the Whirlfoc doing it's thing or something more sinister?
The yeast I've got's from a starter so I'm probably going to pitch it regardless but be nice to know if I've messed up.
Cheers Nick
