I dont know. I did everything just like i use to do... Is it even possible for an infection to appear in 36 hours?
36 hours is quick, yes, but not unusual. I've had a few starters that got infected, but luckily it's rare. I know one must have gotten a fruit fly under the foil, as we were being invaded by them suddenly. We systematically eradicated them. Most other infections occurred with no real traceable reason. But as I said, it doesn't happen often.
I'm always meticulous with cleaning and sanitizing, and turn the AC/HP off when working with yeast. I know my 40 year old ductwork has a "felt layer" in it and must harbor unwanted microflora. I'm almost sure it contains Brett and/or wild yeasts. Undoubtedly mold spores too.
From here, the big bubbles look like the beginning of an infection starting to develop. It usually starts with a haze or an ultra thin slimy layer on top of the wort/beer if left still. The pellicle that forms is a side effect of the infection, forming a physical barrier to other intruders.
Now since you're stirring it, it all mixes in, but doesn't stop them from multiplying. If you leave it unstirred at room temps for a day or longer, you may see a pellicle forming. After it stands for a while, you can taste some of the beer on top (pull a small sample, using a well-sanitized tool). It's likely a bit sour and/or funky tasting.
