i have this weird stuff floating on top of my beer, even after racking...kind of looks like floating yeast. sort of a grayish sledge floating on my beer. i used wyeast 1056 american ale yeast, which has a low-medium floculation.
it's kind of bothering me...probably pour some finings in after it's done fermenting and all.
it does smell like beer...i did not taste it, but it definitely smells like a nice, hoppy ale.
maybe i should point out that it's been getting warmer and warmer here (but since humidity is less than 20% i haven't been running the a/c) and the beer fermented at a temperature higher than normal.
i had one other beer that did this in primary, but it settled out and was just fine...this time, even after 1.5 weeks in primary and racking i still have this stuff floating in my beer.
