Yesterday when I bottled a Ginger Saison I noticed what appeared to be a pellicle (confirmed by looking at photos on HBT). It was about half the size of my palm. The beer tasted normal and I went ahead and bottled anyway. Gravity was 1.000 (OG 1.035 including 1lb of honey).
Have I got potential bottle bombs on the way ?
What should I do ?
Is a pellicle always a sign of a Brett or some other infection or can it develope under normal fermentation ?
Assuming the 1.000 means no more sugar for the Brett to eat I should be OK but what do you do in a case where a pellicle developes at a higher FG ?
