A few months ago I decided to do an all day brewing marathon, making 10 gallons of Kolsch and 10 gallons of imperial Kolsch. The regular Kolsch turned out great, the Imperial Kolsch on the other hand, not so much. I just sampled it and it tastes more like a underattenuated belgian trippel than a Kolsch (even though it finished at 1.011 from 1.070, fermented at 60 degrees). I decided that I will probably fight my way through the imperial Kolsch I have on tap (or dump it) and pitch a pack of wyeast lambic blend in the other 5 gallons. This will be my first experiment with "wild" yeast. Anybody have any ideas on what I should expect? Will the lambic yeast eat through some of the esters that are in the imperial kolsch right now? How long should I let it sit? Will it form a pelicle, and if so, should I just wait until it drops?
Lots of questions, I know. Any help would be appreciated.
