On my first batch the yeast immediately fell to bottom of fermenter. It did ferment and I just bottled. Started another batch and same thing. I don’t recall seeing the yeast settle like that when I made some a few years ago seems strange. I guess if it ferments then it doesn’t matter but thought I would ask if this is normal with yeast packets

That's perfectly normal and expected.

What towe seeing is trub (rhymes with boob). It's a combination of dead and living yeast, hops, various proteins, etc.

Awesome thanks. I probably never noticed in the Mr beer fermenter but this one is clear so it stood out. Thanks
