Is this left over krausen?

I took the lid off my fermenter to take a specific gravity testing of my first batch of beer and I saw this gunk floating on the top. I assume it isn't mold or anything I should be concerned with because I tasted the sample I drew from for the test and it tasted fine (though flat of course).

I scooped the gunk out with a sanitized straining scoop. Was that ok to do? Or in the future should I just leave it in there?

The gunk was paste like it in feel and it was all brown.

Here is a picture of what I am talking about.

Looks normal to me. Could have just racked from underneath it, but as long as your strainer was well-sanitized, you probably didn't hurt anything.

Thanks I appreciate the confirmation!
