Particles in Suspension

    I've had Muntons Gold IPA (3kg kit) in the fermenter for 9 days now. I noticed when I took my first sample a few days ago that there are particles in suspension in the beer.

    I was hoping it was just yeast dropping to the bottom of the fermenter but it seems to have leveled off at 1.015 (OG=1.044) for a couple of days now and it hasn't got any better.

    After a while in the sample jar it does settle quite well.

    Is there a problem? Have others had this happen?...

    i wouldnt think so...i dont bother with hydro. if you got a good active ferment then ride it out. Im sure it will be good..i presume muntons gold ipa comes with munton gold yeast i used that before in extract brews and it was grand stuff....

    It's probably just proteins. It's fine and will most likely drop out before you're ready to serve it, especially if you give the bottles some time in the fridge after they're conditioned.
