I have a wheat ale in primary I brewed the night before last. Last night after snout 24 hrs of fermenting I went to check on it and there was a white stripe running through the top of the krausen.

I've never seen this happen before and would love any input on it.
Thanks!
 
It looks fine to me.
What yeast did you use?
I have had several batches that make you wonder.
 
I used safale us-05. I've never seen an infection that looked like that; just needed some reassurance lol. Ty
 
Nope.Thats fermentation.:mug: Looks beautiful. The white stripe is more likely co2 oxygenish spitt/foam and the brownish is yeast.
