    hi,
    i have been lurking around for a while and final took the blunge and setup my brew (coopers canadian blonde) but now i am starting to worry, the brew has been fermenting 10 days now at 22, i took a sample tonight and brew looks cloudy, is this ok? i also tasted the sample and it was pretty bad.
    i am planning on bottling this weekend but should i continue?

    thanks

    That sounds normal. There's yeast at work in it.

    Without something more specific than "bad", it's hard to say. It wouldn't taste like beer at this stage, however. I'd be inclined to let it run its course, bottle it and see how it matures.

    22 is a bit on the high side, however. If there's any way you can get it down to 18 or so, do.
