I put a dark lager in 7 days ago. scrubbed the fermenter and then used star san.
OG: 1059
22 Litres + 4 litre starter (tipped everything in after 20 or so hours). Wyeast 2308
after 7 days its already 1015
I have another one (munich lager II, OG: 1054) that went in there on the same day its still only 1040. I did notice the brew fridge smelled a little more than usual.
I just cant figure it out. tasting it, i cant tell if its normal or infected. May seem minor, but i just cant be arsed lagering for another couple of months if i have already f*cked it up
I wish i had better ability to figure out if this thing is infected or not. You would think after brewing 50 or so brews i would have figured this game out by now.
Are there any particular signs that you think could help me identify an infection?
Thanks.
