I used Whirlfloc for the first time this weekend. All-grain pale ale. It settled a bunch of break material in the bottom of my kettle and since I didn't anticipate this my pickup tube was not at a good angle and I had some go in my fermenter.
About 8 hours into fermentation I've got a thick floating sludge on top that I assume is break material from the Whirlfloc because it's not krausen. The krausen is developing around it. Will this settle out with time and cold crashing or do I just eventually rack around it to bottling bucket?
