Well to start of, i have to say i used some suspect LME that I had bagged up and left in a dark cool room for 6 weeks which i was not too happy about, but whatever. When I was making my brew i tasted the malt and it seemed fine, and i thought the heat from the boil would pretty much kill anything else in the malt that could have grown. Anyway, I was about to pitch my yeasties this morning (couldn't get the temp down enough till the next morning) and noticed a good amount of yellow flecks along the surface of the carboy, floating on the wort, and suspended in the middle of the wort. Any thoughts?
I pitched the yeast anyways, and tried a sample which tasted just fine at this point, smelled fine, etc....
OG 1.068 which i thought was low for my IIPA about 9# LME, 1.75# brown sugar.
