Mould in TPW
Posted: Sat Nov 25, 2023 7:49 pm
Hi Team,
I put a TPW wash down 2 weeks ago. Put everything in with the exception of the yeast, which I discovered was not enough for the 2 washes. So 48 hours went by before I pitched it. When I went to pitch the yeast, there were some hairy mould growths on the surface of the wash.
I went ahead and scraped them off and then pitched the yeast. Skip forward 2 weeks and it has been sitting at 995 for the last couple of days, with a few small mould growths again on the surface.
Will this be an issue running through the T500 reflux?
Any change to the taste?
I would assume any bacteria will be well and truly dead once it runs through the column at 55*
Cheers Team
