Krausen or Infection

[sok454]

Is this Krausen or infection? It's lager yeast.

Looks like the Munich Helles I brewed last month on WLP860. I pulled a sample five days in and it had only dropped from 1.052 to 1.038. It had a big thick krausen on top.

Phew. It's a week in and I had pitched at low low temps. And kept it too cold. So warmed it up. Now that I have activity ill lower it.

Sounds good just bring it down slowly and you are good to go. 50-55 is target for your beer.
