    So I left the hops in part 2.

    So I left the hops in my mash when adding it to the carboy. Now one week into fermentation I have an about 1 half inch layer of white junk at the bottom... Is this normal? Do I have an infection? Also, I have a black fermometer on the side of my carboy... what does this tell me?
