My second all grain batch looks to be busted. It's in secondary, still chugging away with airlock activity. The surface is covered with what looks like foam and there is a lot of stuff floating around in the wort itself. I did dry hop this one when I racked to secondary, the first time I have dry hopped. Should I just rack it into a corny and give it a taste?

I know it's Sunday morning but relax, have a beer. There's a possibility it's infected, but it's most likely crap from dry hopping. Hops will make the CO2 come out of solution(foam) and the floating crap is probably hop debris. So leave it alone for a while, go thru your normal routine and it'll be alright. Or not, but what do you have to lose at this point.

LOL, I'm way ahead of you there. I'm brewing today and I got a bunch of beers I'd like to sample. Recleaning everything and weighing malt is tedious, and somehow a beer got opened already.:D Hey, it's five o'clock somewhere right? Helps that Margaritaville is already jamming on the satillite radio.
