Just a general question concerning a 'strange phenomenon'.
We made up 5 gal of a WOW style (red grape/blueberry) on the 3/12/12 with OG 1092. Soon afterwards we noticed that a foaming head developed (nothing strange in this!) and shortly afterwards disappeared, just to repeat the whole cycle again. Ever since the 3rd when we started, this cycle of building up a head and then dissolving, goes on and on, and we were just wondering if others experienced that as well.
This is not the first WOW we did, and we did quite a lot of country wines, among them loads of WOWs and variations of it during the summer/autumn. In some batches, especially the 5gal ones, we could observe this as well.
Just wondering what the reason for this is.
