Hello Everyone,
So I recently brewed a Wheat Beer and decided to add cherries to the secondary for something I've never don't before. But after a week of the cherries fermenting I believe I have mold growing. This is my first attempt with adding fruit to a beer to inexperience is big and was looking to clarify.
So in he recipe I made I added a smack pack of yeast (Wyeast Lab 1010 American Wheat), I've read in a few other forums that this could possibly be the year or it could be mold. I personally am not sure, would anyone be able to help me out? I added a picture if my current brew its in a 5 gallon plastic big mouth carboy, I used 9 pounds of fresh frozen cherries. I let them thaw out for a good three hours then pitched them in the carboy and racked the wheat beer over them. There were still a little cold and did chill my carboy the first day.
If this is mold can this still be salvaged?
Any help would be fantastic, I've read other forums about this but it seems like with mold its really based off of how it looks in the picture so I wanted to start a new thread and ask for some help/advice.
Thank you in advance!!!
