evening lads and ladies
so my first batch went beautifully - one more week in the bottles and it'll be ready. I tried a pint of it whilst bottling and fell in love with my own beer it went so smoothly, something was bound to go wrong in the second batch.
I'd brewed and primary fermented the second batch and then transfered it over to the glass carboy for a two week wait. I threw in some oak chips as well, but forgot to add my gelatin, so rapidly got some ready and dumped it in at the last minute.
I looked at it this morning (1 week in secondary) and there is a small patch (2cm across) of white mold. Is the batch ruined? Do I just throw it out and start again? Or is there anything I can do to save it?
cheers!
