I’m fermenting my first hefe. I noticed that it started bubbling about 36 hours after putting in the fermenter (could have started up to 12 hours earlier than that), and after 14 days there’s still a large amount of bubbly Krausen at the top and a lot of movement inside the carboy.
Typically i see the krausen settle after about 7-10days on my other beers. Is it normal for it to still be fermenting, or is this normal for a hefe to retain a top floating krausen? And do I need to wait for the top to clear before bottling?
Additional information:
WLP300 yeast
67-70 degree fermentation
Open fermentation tank until today (day 14)
I didn’t take gravity readings as it was from a kit
