I have read over most of the threads that talked about film and possible mold contamination but didn't see any pictures that looked like mine. Anyone know what may be causing this? It only seems to happen when I dry-hop in the secondary.
This particular brew is a Rye IPA that has been dry-hopped with Sorachi Ace from Japan. Brewed on 7/31 and racked to secondary on 8/10. I soaked the muslin bags in my Iodophor sanitizing solution before adding the hops. However, I've encountered the same film when using Star-San sanitizer. It is a ten gallon batch split evenly into two glass carboys and the other carboy does not have any film on it. Go figure.
