Hey all,
I just registered, but I've been reading these forums for a while. I've gotten a lot of helpful advice. I recently started brewing my own beer. The first 2 batches were fine, but I've got an issue with my third batch.
It's a Mexican Cerveza, from a malt extract kit. The primary fermentation went fine, but at the end, there was a brown film on top of the beer. It wasn't white or green, so I assumed it wasn't mold, and proceeded to secondary fermentation, racking it to a carboy.
Now it's been in the carboy for 2 weeks, and I'm ready to bottle. However, now the beer has this thin white film on top, and I'm concerned it might be mold. Can anyone tell me what's going on here? Is this mold? Is it safe to drink? You can see a photo of what I'm talking about at this link:
