Hi, I haven't made mead before, and I'd just like to confirm if this is indeed mold.
I know the containers I used is not ideal. I just wanted to experiment with the process and see what it was like before investing in anything.
I've got two jars, and a plastic container that had whey protein in it. I washed and scrubbed out the containers with dish washing liquid and hot water, then I used some sterilizer from a beer brewing kit my dad had.
They've been sitting around for roughly 3 months and I've checked them a few times. The white stuff has been there for a few weeks now, maybe even a little more. Thanks for any help.
