This is a test batch of Chocolate/Coffee Imperial Stout. I had an issue from the start when my yeast didn't start. No, I didn't use a starter since I hadn't planned on brewing that day. Pitched wlp 099 into 60 degree wort. Nothing happened for 24 hrs. Went back to store and he suggested the workhorse dry yeast. Dumped it in and it cranked right up. Primary went fine. Now in second week in secondary and I see "something suspicious" on top. Today, 2 days later, it looks like this. No hair on it but freaking me out. In 2 years, I've never had this. Og was 1.080 and my fg was 1.008. This recipe did have maltodextrin in it which I've never used before. Contaminated?
