This is our first batch, around 1 gallon in two separated glass carboys, of what was supposed to be an IPA. It will end like something near a Stout due to a misunderstood between toasted and roasted barley at the brewshop. It bubbled nicely during the fermentation and a vigorous kraeusen was formed. But at a certain point we realised that we had lots of white spots in the inner wall of the carboy but nothing in the wort. Now the kraeusen is disappearing and we plan to bottle in a couple of days. Do you think it is an infection? Maybe only a glass infection? Or just the newbie's paranoid? Here you have the spots' pics:



The wort looks fine to me. What do you think?

Default New one. Natural infection

My 8 gallon canning pot I use for open pit brewing. I guess I "forgot" to clean this one after the last batch of Porter. Something came to visit and got frozen in mid life! Kind of awesome. This looks like dry ice smoke bubbling up, but it's absolutely locked in ice, bubbles fuzz and all!

Thanks! It was driven primarily by the need to get off the kitchen stove. According to a former coworker, I am "part wizard".

Is there an appropriate place on HBT to post video links?
