Had a batch of Moose Drool clone that I didin't get drank before I took off for Afghan the Trashcan so I dumped a can of sour cherry puree and the dregs of a Crooked Stave WWBG in it before I left. My wife just sent me this pic. Go figure, I finally get something to grow, and I'm not there to watch it

At least you can't drink it too soon! Stay safe!
Ok I'm in it for the long haul. I took out the vanilla bean you see protruding out in post 414
I told the wife this will be the hardest 9 months of our life...she didn't really see the irony, and of course, got mad and retaliated by proclaiming she won't drink it because it's covered in bacteria. She has problems seeing the big picture.

Tell her that certain parts of her are "covered in bacteria" yet you have not problem eating that.

She's likely also missing that the same bacteria that's probably in the beer (lacto) is in that same place.
It's in its infancy but here it is.. Pitched dregs from (local) squatters fifth element and orval

My Flanders turned 6 months on Sunday. Told myself I wasn't going to taste any of the three sours until they were that old. Drew a sample and gave it a go. Very pleased as how this is turning out. The nose on it was great. Slightly sweet but has a nice sour bit to it. The body is a little week and hopefully it will mature in time. The oak is definitely present and I like it. Leaves a nice aftertaste from it.

Dude. Awesome pellicle. Wow. Just wow.
I opened up a fermenter a few weeks ago and saw a small pellicle-like skin on top of my CLEAN blueberry beer. Saddened, I tried to save the beer by pitched many, MANY different dregs from some of my favorite beers into it. Got some Sacchro, Brett, Lacto, even some Pedio into it, and several times.
Luckily, about a month later, I opened up to this...
*tear* It's so beautiful. It smells exactly like the lacto-rich Cascade Brewing blueberry sour ale. Can't wait to taste this guy.
2 weeks after brewing or two weeks after fermentation?
Either way that would be a very fast pellicle, and it does look like mold to me... maybe a more trained eye would know better.
indeed! looks like sum fruit too so makes me think secondary..
+1 for mold.. dont know if it could be rack from underneath and leave a little since only the top is affected.. wonder if it was brought in with the fruit, if its fruit

Yeah, 6lbs of pureed raspberries with some wort. I plan to blend this with a 100% brett brux beer that I have sitting in a fermenter, smells awesome.
I knew I shouldn't have brewed with this yeast. All those elongated ones are likely brett or some wild yeast. The original yeast was harvested from an open fermenter in a German brewery.

fpweeks, curious about this. Did you use other souring bugs or brett besides the Guava Grove dregs? Unless it was a much older vintage bottle, I'm pretty sure CC is producing this as a clean beer now. Either way, good looking pellicle there!

I had read on the mad fermentationist's blog that I could pitch from it. There was definitely something in the bottom I the bottle. It wasn't an old bottle.
I did pitch another bottle's dregs...and for the life of me I can't remember exactly what. Pretty sure it was a gueuze...
