Saison fermented with Wyeast 3522 then Brett B added to secondary. Smells like funky bubblegum......I can't wait for this one!

My first pellicle (i think)

Berliner Weisse after 24 hours of pitching a homemade lacto culture


and then two hours later. . .



^my air lock is now going crazy. Possible that wild yeast got in? Or is that typical for bacteria?

*I have not pitched any yeast*

Lacto will cause a raging fermentation exactly like yeast. At least I had this when I made my 2 berliner wiesse batches. In fact, what I see in your picture I believe is just normal fermentation stuff, foam from CO2 and protiens and such.

Interesting!! I thought it was pellicle because I saw those stringy projections coming from the little masses. I guess we will see what it does!

Soma, just curious, which JP dregs did you use? Ive got a one gallon batch running on the dregs from two bottles of La Roja, and a starter from a bottle of Cinco Anos I plan on adding once stepped up a bit. I'm excited...

This is my Northern Brewer Grand Cru Lambic after 6 months. I threw in some dregs from a couple bottles of Petrus Oud Bruin and a bottle of Mikeller's It's Alive after a couple months.

Question, what exactly am I looking at? By the way, it smells awesomely sour.

Lacto starter (grain + apple juice) for next weekends Berliner (hopefully).
