Hi Debra, welcome to the forum, did you take a picture at all? A lot of the time it can be quite harmless 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the time it can be quite harmless Welcome @Debra Maloney I second what @Rob Courtney has said, if you have a photo or can take a photo, that will really help. Also, if you can let us know which BrewPrint you have used and did you use the standard Fermentation Profile for that BrewPrint? Also, if your BrewPrint doesn't require a cold crash (i.e. lowering the temperature to single digits) then that could simply be the last of the krausen (i.e. the yeast raft that forms on the top of the water and ingredients during fermentation) and therefore a good sign.

So, it looks like an infection but it will be from the yeast not anything else like the beer packs being old. Can it still be drunk, yep, would I? maybe. Nah I'd just start again I think What I would say is if you have a Brewart sanatising tablet, please use it, otherwise soak the droid in a sodium Percarbonate mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debra Maloney Posted January 13 Author Report Share Posted January 13 Thanks Rob..Yes I don't think I will drink it..I just wanted to really find out how the Beerdroid worked So I will Sanitize & Buy a New Brewprint Thanks again for the advice 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
