Alien in my cider

So there is this strange growth in the secondary. A blob giving off bubbles. What is it?

I was busy and I left the Cyser in the primary for almost three months. Never opened it but the air lock still had sanitized water in it. Moved the 1.5 gallons to two secondaries and topped off with AJ. Then these things formed.

 

Wow, I have no idea.....but it looks very interesting to say the least.

 

.

 

Tribble

 

Pectin? How would that get in there?

There is no unpleasant odor. Maybe less smell than normal.

 

Pectin (from Ancient Greek: πηκτικός pēktikós, "congealed, curdled"[1]) is a structural heteropolysaccharide contained in the primary cell walls of terrestrial plants.

So it came from the fruit used in your cider

 

Whoa!

 

Ancient Aliens! They are probably sending a message through your cider from another galaxy.....

 

If it starts looking like the critter seen below.........run!

 

LMAO!!

 

LMAO!!

 

I used pasteurized AJ and honey, nothing unusual happened in the primary. This just grew in both secondaries. Think it is safe to drink.

 

Yup!

 

Almost looks like scobie. My neighbor makes kombucha and theres stuff like that floating around in there that looks like that.

 

Subbed. Looks nasty, but I love the comments.
