I produced a wort on Sat its a pilsner, I used Durst Pils malt, Munich, and Carapils 20. And a little sour malt to ajust the pH. I ran out of time and let the wort sit after finishing the sparge until the next morn.
Sun. It smelled funky like vomit, the wort was also covered with a dark protien like sluge. I skimmed it off. The grain still smelled like grain. I boiled the wort. 60 min, Lots of Saaz hops, Smell of vomit hidden by strong smell of hops.
Mon. Its getting started fermenting the head is starting to form, Now it smells like hops and vomit. It tastes like fresh wort, And is very cloudy,The pH seems correct around 5.3 Why is this stinking so much? Any one ever have a simular experiance? If so how did it end up?
