Infection?

[Tcjl28]

Hi,

Is this infection? This white stuff didn't appear until I started dry hopping.

Thank you.

Looks like it. I'm not sure what kind. I'd post that over in the wild brewing forum to see what they think. As long as it's not acetobacter it could be a beer you can salvage, just know that you're going to have to deep clean all that equipment that touches it (or just replace it and keep it as "sour" equipment if you're in to sours).

I've used a wine thief on both sours and non sours interchangeably with no issues, but I Star San the crap out of it immediately before and after.
