Earlier this month I wrote about the honey kolsch that I brewed one Saturday. I had been very worried about it - the yeast took a few days to activate and I thought I might have had some bad microbes. But lo, eventually they woke up.
Here's an update from Saturday, where they'd been going strong for two days. Look at that flocculation.
I just checked on things and there is still a steady burp, so I will let it stay in primary for a few more days.
Meanwhile, I'm planning to do something extra with this batch - I want to add a little bit of lavender to the beer when it is finished. I could add the flowers to the secondary, but I'd like to have a better way, since that would clog my siphon.
So what we'll have is a special spring kolsch with honey and lavender...hoping for good results here.
