I just had this happen to me, white flakey crust like paint, what a disapointment.Thought maybe it was from s-33 yeast from being new to it,shure was a great tasting one though i did a Dumone dupage clone, had the highest final gravity ive had 1.018 im use to 1.01's , i did mash high, also ive been getting mold around my plugs i think it was due to having a blowoff with a few other fermenters in a closed tub-cuz i dont like bugs snooping around. I noticed a small black dot with a fuzzy white surrounding in my airlock water also. \
I was going to scoop it but decided against and just stuck my autosiphone in quickly, i did see a few bits in my botteling bucket, guess ill keep these in a rubbermaid and refrige them after good carbonation.Instead of long conditioning them like all my others.
