fermenting HELP! Mold-like on Fermented Peppers

burning man · Aug 5, 2015

Hi Chilliheads!

Greetings!

My fermented chili (composed of chili & salt/brine solution) last June 22 has some mold-like on top of it.

What will I do? Can I just scrape it off and continue to ferment it?
Hope to hear from you guys soon!
Thanks in advance!

Best,
burning man

Sorry burning man, I can't really tell. Could be kham yeast or could be funk. I don't think it looks good, or at least I'd be wary of it. How does it smell?

Yeah I'm not sure there. Go with the smell

Thanks for the reply guys! Will try to scrape of the "yeast" and observe it further
