I recently bottled my first ever home brew and checked on it after about a week and found a sort of black sediment floating on top of it. This being my first brew I have no idea if this is normal or if it some sort of bacteria. I cleaned and sterilized everything before fermentation and bottling and cant think of any reason why there would be an infection. The beer is Coopers Ginger Beer and it is in Coopers PET bottles. The black substance appears as a black line at the top of the bottles, but when disturbed it begins to sink down the bottle and disappear. I have tried to take some pictures but due to the colour of the bottles and the size of the sediment/bacteria they aren't very clear. I would really appreciate and advice on whether this is normal, and if not if the beer is salvageable.
Thanks
here are some pictures of the bottles
