Hi All - looks like I've made a serious mistake by not stirring the blackberries after I closed the lid on the primary fermentor (I had a towel for the first 5-6 days and was stirring the blackberries 1-2 times a day in that period). It's been 2 days since I last stirred, and I just opened the bucket following a recommendation in a different thread. I was sad to find a white growth on the exposed berries (see attached image).
My intuition tells me that I should immediately rack to secondary and dissolve a bunch of campden tablets into the must. Before I do that, I wanted to get a secondary opinion from some of y'all here. Anybody have any thoughts to share one way or another?
Cheers, and thanks for taking the time to read this!
