After about six months my lambic is progressing nicely. Below is a pic of the pellicle becoming quite pronounced. I dare sneak a taste at this point as I’m told you never want to disturb the pellicle.
Here is a good example of why it is good to use a secondary fermentor. This is my Saison Ete and I was a bit worried about the cloudiness when going into the secondary. You can see how it goes from a very light butter color to nice clear beer. Yes, this is the same beer after about a month in the secondary. I’ll probably bottle in a week or two depending on my schedule. And yes, that is a 78 F temp on the carboy. Ok for a saison, but I’ve got definate fermentation temperature issues in my current apartment.
