I'm not a Lambic, sour or wild brewer, but I do like these pictures. Very cool.

So relieved! I'd never seen a real fat pellicle before and assumed it was horribly infected with something that you can't drink *especially because I ACTUALLY sanitized the shat out of my fermenter before hand, and had never done a wild beer in it...*, but it looks just like that one, and its smelling GOOOOOD. I want to drown in it! MMMMM! its like 10%, too!

I have my first pellicle in a belgian dubbel I have sitting on some Brett L. It's NOTHING like what you guys have, but it's pretty disgusting none-the-less. I am trying to do an Orval and they say theirs sits on the Brett L for 4 weeks (according to someone on HBT).

The question I have is once you rack and bottle your stuff how do you "wash" the yeast? For ten bucks a lambic nasty I'd love to just keep these around.

maybe that baby put it in there? just keep lining your buckets with 'child' and maybe you won't ever have to buy lambic nasties ever again

My second attempt at a berliner weisse, 4.5 gallons pitched with pure lacto culture 100 hours ago, just pitched us-05 into it when I took the pics:





and a .75 gallon batch of the same wort, pitched with a couple hand-fulls of uncrushed grain (100 hrs also):

JoMarky your Berliner Weisse pictures give me hope that my attempt may not be ruined. I got that same frothy white krausen with greenish brown scum and it smelled strongly of hot rotting dumpster filled with vomit. The smell has got away but it still has the scummy looking krausen. Have to get my camera out and take some pictures.
