We have fermentation!

For the first time in TTBC history, I have captured fermentation in the act. You might think, "How, in 7 years, has he not captured this before?" Truth be told, I almost exclusively brew in buckets, so only when I'm brewing a miniature batch do I actually get to see the process working.

And now, without further ado, I give you an exceptionally long (30 sec) and possibly less exciting than I think look at the TTBC Sweet Tater ESB on Day 1 of fermentation. I apologize if it is difficult to see, but there are big chunks of trub being churned about as the yeast works it's magic. It was mesmerizing to watch.

And here's a look at it on Day 4, with fermentation considerably slower. The orangish color is much more apparent (at least to me).
