Mouldy top

[Fireball13801]

Have just returned from hols, and the brew I started just before I left (about 2.5 weeks ago) is just showing the first signs of mould growth in The fermenter, assume that there is no way to salvage this one, and that it's a start again situation

So close.

You need to right click the image in the link, copy the image location, then press the "img" button above, and paste the link into the middle of the img /img bit it inserts.

EDIT: Ah, see you have it now.

Someone else will be along to tell you with greater certainty, but looks like usual dark brown clumps (quite spread out) and white froth to me. Photo is a bit blurred. If it's at all yellow or smells like vinegar, that would be bad.

I would say that that looks pretty normal to. Have a taste of it. :thumb:

Yes it all looks ok from here as morethanworts said , i would smell it and if ok taste it . But looks ok to me

I think yours looks OK too. I think it is usually quite obvious when it goes mouldy and the lumps have a blue tinge. Here's one I prepared earlier...

Perfect, thanks for all your help :

get it racked into another fv or into bottles or a barrel, it will be fine ,,, :

I had one a couple of weeks ago I thought had gone mouldy but it tasted like it should and the smell was ok so I bottled it and it is fine.
So the up shot is if it smells and tastes fine it will be fine! :hat:
