This Northern Brown Ale has been in the bucket for 23 days. I was going to bottle in a few days so I went to take a quick gravity check since I moved it out of the basement to warm up and gain a few points. Well I popped the lid and found this.
After reading a post on here about the lid/gasket of buckets possibly harboring mold I decided to check the lids of my two empty buckets and I found some junk on the gaskets of both of them. So I took the gasket out of the lid of this weekend's beer and cleaned it real good and sanitized it. I know the best thing I can and should do is replace my buckets but can someone please verify this is mold so I can rack from underneath it and hope the beer turns out.
