Sulphur Smell from Fermentor
Posted: Friday Jan 25, 2008 6:47 pm
Hi guys,
My Brewcraft Asahi kit (Saflager S-23) has been bubbling away for 4 days or so now- got a nice foamy top going by about 48hrs. Temps have been kept at 12-14C in the laundry tub. Today, I noticed a sulphur-like smell in the laundry, which is coming from under the lid of the fermentor. Not having brewed a lager before, I'm not sure if might be an expected smell or could it be an infection (which would be a first)? I had a quick taste, and as expected the wort is still very sweet. Appreciate any opinions...
