You'll be fine!

I made a beer earlier in the year that had this too. Maybe the temp? Or the wind has changed, or you didn't hop around on one food while turning anticlockwise ;-)

Mine came out as an almost accidental Gueuze couldn't do that again!

How did this turn out Leon? Did the Pellicle any affect?

Is the sound on the end of the word pronounced 'ickle' or 'issil'?

 

[cheapbrew]

I pronounce it as pell ickle :thumb:
