Yet another batch potentially down the drain. Different fermenter, same refrigerator but all sealed up the whole time. The only hydro sample taken was via the spout (big mouth bubbler fermenter), and sprayed with sanitizer afterwards. I sanitized during the boil, racked direct from the grainfather and covered the opening with a paper towel sprayed with sanitizer while it was pumping. Added yeast (rehydrated s05) and a 3-piece airlock with sanitizer in it, and left it for the past 10 days. This crap wasn't here 2 days ago. The fermenter fridge was temp controlled to 68 degrees using an inkbird, and I have a fan blowing the air around to try to keep temps stable in the whole fridge.
So what is your opinion, is this gone or no big deal? ... And if I keep it and rack to keg, will this crap form inside the keg? What if it is carb'd and refrigerated?
If you know where I'm messing up I'd love to know! I've run 3 good batches since, but my 2nd batch ever was a vanilla rum oatmeal stout in a ssbrewtech conical that looked a good bit worse than this.
