Hey folks, I've got a question for you. I have a sealed container of yeast slurry in my fridge, and it's pretty consistently building pressure in the container. Whenever I see it, I crack the container and vent the gas.
Do you think I should be worried? It still smells fine and it doesn't have a pelicle. The beer on top is hazy, but the slurry came from a wheat ipa, so that's to be expected.
It's either still slowly fermenting, it's infected, or it's somehow still off-gassing. I've used the slurry once so far, and that batch did not become infected. Thoughts? My inclination is to RDWAHAHB.
