White spots in secondary

[layne00]

Looking to see if anyone can tell what this is on top of my beer in my secondary. At first glance it looks like mold but when you look closer, you can tell that they are clusters of bubbles. Noticed them a day or two after I transferred to my secondary. Hopefully it is nothing bad. Thanks in advance.

OMG! It's bird flu.

This may be a stupid question to you but that is why it is in the beginners forum. A simple "normal occurrence" or explanation would suffice.

Just kidding, sorry. Looks fine- you just transferred it from primary to secondary, some yeast may show activity. What yeast did you use? Look up yeast rafts.

No problem. I appreciate your help and the thread. I used wyeast 1056 American ale.

You said it: when you look closely, it's just bubbles. It's just bubbles.

Just some CO2 coming out of solution after you racked. No problem at all, in fact it looks perfectly normal. And awesome

Looks good to me, you are well on your way to drinkable brew.

I have seen yeast rafts that look like that, however I have also seen infections that look like that initially. Keep a close eye on it.

You say that they are just bubbles so you should be fine!! Have a home brew and relax!

Thanks for all the responses. I assumed it was fine but appreciate the extra knowledge you have all passed on.
