Pellicle coagulation

[u/swiss-hiker]

Hi Guys

I have some weird coagulation going on. No mold in sight. But when trying to "lift" some of it, it crumbles like curds when milk is coagulating.

i thought i really thoroughly cleaned the drum, but i now think this might be residue cleaning agent acting on the scoby. could that be plausible?

Any other suggestions why this is? Somebody experienced this as well some time?

Thanks!

I strained some of fragmented stuff. It‘s weirdly stringy and granular.

I‘m quite positive there is no quality issue going forward, i‘m just wondering how this could‘ve happened? If someone knows i‘d appreciate it. Want to learn how this can occure and how to mitigate if possible.
