Recipe #2 - Day by Day - Updated!

Day 0 (approx 10 minutes in carboy)
Recipe #2, Day 0
Solid process, good tasting wort. Looks like flat cola in the carboy after a few minutes of fermentation.

Day 1 (approx 23 hours in carboy)
Recipe #2, Day 1
Basically looks the same as when it was poured. No noticeable fermentation occurring. Possible big, intermittent 'burps' through the airlock, but could have also have been vibrations in the room. I thought I saw one, and Kate thought she did, too.

Day 3 (approx 65 hours in carboy)
Recipe #2, Day 3
Finally! Some fermentation. It began on Day 2, but looked essentially like it did when it started up until AM of the third day. Started with a thin amount of krasen, but now had a nice half inch of foam, with murky brown stuff all over it. Heavy bubbling in the airlock.
