im pretty sure this is contamination but im a noobie and wanted to ask a second opinion. sorry for the blur, no macro setting. ill try and get better. this black stuff just showed up in one of my jars. it happened in another jar previously but was at the top near the dry verm layer and was alongside green mold. this is at the very bottom of the jar and showed up as the jar was almost colonized

Listen to the Doc_T, he knows what he's talking about.
Definetly need better pics!!! I can't even begin to see what that is. But my rule of thumb is if I'm not sure... I TOSS IT!

Yeah that's a good idea. My hub and I have 2 fc's. One for good cakes, and a seperate for iffy cakes, just in case they are still viable. But somethings we don't even risk, we just toss.

I would pressure cook it ASAP but I'm just paranoid.

You can pressure cook an already colonized jar?

well you would be pc it again to kill everything in the jar, so no its not going to do anything. if you pc a colonized jar you are going to kill the mycl and everything in the jar. thats what the pc is for, to sterilize.

I assumed that it wouldn't that's why I was confused that you would tell him to do that, but I realize now it's so you can use the jar again. Sorry I bothered to ask.

From what I can see it looks Like a brf cake right? The pics are hard to see but It might be a wet spot that got stuck tightly against the glass.
If we could see the detail and color more clearly we could help you.

That kind of heat kills everything... I didn't mean to offend you, I just found it a funny question.

No offense taken. I'm just a little snippy tonight. I've been alone for over a week now and it's starting to take it's toll on me. No husband, no daughter. I just don't do well by myself, I need people. I've spent almost 16 hours a day on shroomery just trying not to think about it.
