white fluffy bits floating around in my wk batch

Postby fi3 » Sat May 25, 2019 3:22 pm

HI all,
may I ask you for an advice please:

strange white fluffy bits form lately in my batches, floating around

I am using 2L jar, where I have approx 5 tablespoons of grains and I feed them every 48hours with 5 tablespoons of natural unrefined cane sugar (alternating white and brown) dissolved in 2L natural mineral still water.

Is this safe to drink? Please see attachments

thanks a lot!

D

Looks like yeast to me and maybe some grain debris. It may be due to alternating between the white and brown. It might be unsettling the ferment and the yeast. It doesn't look that bad though, I've seen ferments like that before. I would say its okay to drink if it tastes good.

Yes, growth is a good sign that the grains are happy. If its keeps going, I would give the grains a really good rinse for like 30 seconds and see if that helps.
