Infected?

Havent seen anything like this before.

Here is the deal.

This is a lager that is now 1 month old.

2 weeks in primary, 2nd week in secondary.

I saved some of the original wort, froze it, added some fresh yeast, and put it in the secondary. My first shot a krausening - without carbing. Jus tlooking to try and get some fresh yeast/wort in there to enhance the beer.

This white stuff doesnt look good.




Any thoughts? Looks like an infection, but it didnt start till about 6 days ater adding the new wort/yeast.

well its hard to tell from the pic, its a little far away. but yea it looks like an infection. give it a good sniff and taste test before you decide what to do with it.

ITs a light grey color. Kinda like thin pudding skin.

Yes... Infected....

This is the first infection I have ever had.

Is the infection only on the top? Or is the whole batch infected?

Any saving it?

You can try to take some samples from below the surface and go from there... I am not an infected brew specialist by any means... If anything you may end up with some sort of 'sour' type beer...

What was the original recipe?
