I bottled and primed my beer. I noticed that now (two weeks) there are floating solids at the top of the beer. If I shake the bottle little the solids fall out and sink to the bottom.

I didn't notice this in the previous batches.

Is this the bottle carbonation equivalent of krausen?
 
Could be. Does every bottle look the same?

Did you dry-hop? Sometimes I get floaties when I dry-hop.

The only time I actually saw fermentation activity in a bottle - bubbles, mini-kraeusen - was when the rim of the bottle had cracked, and the cap didn't seal.
