Mold or not mold?

[rmachacek]

Hi everyone - I've had some recent kombucha mold issues, which I thought I had eradicated, but I'm paranoid and wondering if I have it again. The area of the SCOBY I am concerned with is in the close up of the white pocky area. Thoughts? Thanks!

Sorry you didn't get any answers. It doesn't look like it. Is it fuzzy? It is a very ugly SCOBY.

nope not fuzzy. it doesn't really have mold characteristics. I think i'm just paranoid from my last batch that definitely did have mold. the scoby is getting better looking. it had been in the fridge for a while, so it's building back up to health! thanks for the reply!
