I actually took an airlock, attached a hose and have a blow off setup. Plan to throw an actual airlock on there once I secondary. Thanks for your help, I think you are right about the residue

It's about 65-67 degrees, wyeast 1056 smack pack, pitched 2 packets only about 1.5 packets got in though some leaked out when I pitched it.

So I brewed the northern brewer pliny clone 2 weeks ago. It seems to me the kraussen hasn't dropped but it almost looks like it could have and the white part on top could just be a residue or stain. I can't tell any suggestions?

What is the fishing line for?

Hi- I brewed this Northern Brewer Pliny clone a week and a half ago, krausen has still not dropped. I pitched about a packet and a half of 1056. Tried to pitch 2 packets but some yeast leaked from the top of the fermentor due to a ton of foam. Anyways what I am trying to determine is...

Great! I was just thrown off by these tendril looking things that started growing on the sides, only appeared recently. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

Here is an aerial view. This is the northern brewer bourbon barrel porter. Just want to make sure it's not an infection before I spend money on a bottle of makers to soak oak chips in. Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I brewed this porter on 8/7, transferred it to secondary on 8/24. I just checked it for the first time in a few weeks and found these legs appearing. I'm thinking this is an infection. Is it? Sent from my iPhone using Home Brew

I brewed a Belgian Golden Ale from a Brewers Best extract kit. It sat in a primary for 7 weeks. Bottled it and measured a FG of 1.000, even with temp correction. Tasted great. Is a FG of 1.000 possible?

I've had this Belgian golden in a primary for about 7 weeks. I see these little clusters of bubbles on the surface. Does this look like an infection? There is a bit of light reflection on the bottom left. Thanks!

I used this regular Oxiclean instead of the Oxiclean FREE to clean my better bottle. Is that okay?

Thanks for your input! I made the mistake of filling my carboy past the 5 gallon mark by just over a quarter of an inch. My starting gravity was 1.066. The room I am fermenting in is 63 degrees, unfortunately I have no other rooms to ferment in. I am fermenting in a 6 gallon better bottle...

how long should I keep it in the primary? It's been 3 weeks. Won't that yeast cake create off flavors if the beer sits on there longer than a month?

Hate to say it but I don't have a thermometer on the better bottle. I keep forgetting to buy one at my LHBS.

I have a Belgian Golden Ale that has been sitting in a primary for almost 3 weeks. I plan to transfer it to a secondary soon. Should I take 3 days of readings prior to the 3 week mark? (OR) Should I take 1 reading on the day of the 3 week mark and if it falls in the FG range on my recipe...

The temp was 59 degrees so I don't think that was the problem. Any suggestions on methods for dry hopping? I will be using a 5 gallon better bottle, then bottling.
