I've had this happen before. I call it a "double Krausen". I dont know if there is a technical term for it or why it happen, my guess the proteins or something. good luck.
thanx for plugging my cast, jake. i hope you had a great time hanging out with me on australia day. for those of you who missed it: TOO BAD. that was my last ever :P but don't forget to check out jake's cast - his is a party every week.
Looks like yeast foam to me on top of the bubbles there, it's probably okay. And the pillow case is a good idea, I usually throw a black t-shirt on mine and a small plastic clamp to close up the top.
Nothing wrong with that fermentation. I think you will fine that it is better than your last one. Thanks for the Australia Day shout out mate bloody bonza your bloods worth bottling.
The fermentation looks perfect to me Jake! And yes, cover your beer from light SPECIALLY hoppy beers! Good video and I can't wait to see your new setup on Saturday!
Fermentation looks ok. You just have a good layer of krauesen on top. Looks like you may need a blow-off tube instead of an airlock, just to be safe.

just looks like the yeast is hydrating... kinda like when you hydrate it in water before you put it in your mash

I think you'll be fine as far as the fermentation, it does look a bit strange though.

OMG!! That fermentation is totally messed up. Please wait for fermentation to complete, bottle it, and then send it to me for further investigation.
