Hey all,

I recently tried harvesting yeast from a bottle for the first time, and after the first step-up, I noticed it looked... interesting. So my question is: Am I correct and is this infected? Should I just buy some yeast and abandon this?

How does it smell? I'd say it's likely an infection (doesn't quite look like yeast rafts to me).
