Yes Mold, I am a very very newbee, Sept 23 I started a concord grape, Moved it to the secondary 7 days later. Sg was 1070.00 I stirred it the first few days and Have left it. I went to look at it yestersday and it had a layer of mold with mold bubbles on top.
I am guessing a contaimation at this point. BUT??? What else could it have been. I have two more batches in a primary and do not want the same thing. I only had a 6 gallon Carboy at the time and it was one gallon dessert wine recipe(no water). Was the Carboy too big? I now have a three gallon. Is that still going to be too big? Did it get too much air?
At this point I have done nothing. Is it completely lost? Or can it actually rescued???
Should I bleach the carboy and then use the sterile solution?
