This gallon of cider was started 4/6, racked to secondary on 5/8, and just within the last week has developed this whitish filmy stuff on the top. Hoping one of you has seen something similar and can give me some info. This is my first batch that I've left age this long (had more recent ones that I've just bottled after primary)... Hoping its just yeast, but thinking it might be some sort of infection. It's otherwise pretty clear, and really no yeast sediment on the bottom. For additional info: used While Foods organic apple juice, Nottingham yeast, fermented room temp (warmer than ideal;and could taste some fusels during gravity tests), 1/4cup AJC added prior to fermentation (and 30 raisins, 1/2tsp pectic enzyme, 1/4tsp wine tannin), OG was 1.055, SG was 1.004 on 4/18, FG was 1.001 when transferred to secondary.
Thanks for any help!
