bubbles or yeast?

[chandler71]

I moved my beer from primary to secondary glass carboy the other day! I carried the bottle to storage area and left it! I did not shake the bottle or create bubbles when I racked the beer!! When I look at beer now it looks like little micro bubbles in bottom of carboy or could this be spent yeast? I hope its not bubbles cause I don't want to oxidize beer!

Most likely it's yeast/other crap dropping out of suspension. I'm not sure how bubbles would have formed down there, unless they are CO2 bubbles, but that still seems unlikely. Even if it is air bubbles, that amount wouldn't be enough to oxidize your beer.

More than likely it's just CO2 coming out of solution. It's very common for that to happen when moving beer. Any little bit of agitation or slight warming could cause it.

Bubbles usually don't hang out on the bottom of a carboy. Most likely it's just yeast. Don't worry.
