    White sediment at the top of the bottles

    Hi, I've bottled my very first batch and after a week of carbonation I noticed some kind of sediment at the top of the bottles. It looks white and in some bottles even chunky (sticks to the bottle side if I move it around). What it could be and should I worry about it? (I know the picture is...
