So I guess I took too long to keg my Berliner Weisse. It has been close to 2 weeks in the primary, 5 gallons in a six gallon carboy... Now there is a white dusty pellicle forming, About 15 dime size patches . I soured the mash then boiled the wort, so the contamination is not from that. It is a low gravity brew, only about 3 percent strong. I only opened the carboy once to take a gravity reading, I am sure I sanitized my thief well enough that I didn't contaminate it then... It's probably from the large head space, I guess. I am not worried or upset, mostly I would like to have an idea of what this contamination might be.
Anyway..... I don't have the keg space, I guess I will just see what happens. I have a pound or two of black berries in the freezer from this summer, I might throw those in...
Anybody have any thoughts or input? Brew tastes great, I wish I could keg it right now..
