ok, i posted a few days back on a small mold contamination I got in my secondary. a small white patch (3 cm across). I tried siphoning it off (skimming the film off is impossible as it's in my glass carboy) and thought I'd succeeded. apparently I succeeded in spreading the mold to other surface areas too!
it's not looking terrible, just a bit of a white film in some patches on the surface, to worry or not to worry, that is the question. would you recommend racking again over into another carboy and leaving it for a week or two? it's almost done in the secondary and should be bottled this weekend, but I'm willing to wait.....
im loathe to throw the entire batch away especially given that some people have said it really doesnt matter.
thoughts? comments? suggestions?
