Open ferment and skim that scum from the Krausen

The more I brew the more traditionalist I become.

Not planning on building a coolship nor getting horizontal lagering tanks though.

This is another open ferment and this time I’ve skimmed the hops garbage off the top of the Krausen after the first day of fermentation . Guess I’m getting more and more serious about these traditional methods. Learning along the way.

When I check it tomorrow I should take a photo. Krausen at the early days is such a beautiful puffy thing - and then near the end of fermenting of course not so much.

48 hours since pitching the yeast and I’m down 2°P and the krausen is forming.
