How quickly did they colonize?

my vote is for mycelium, but the sour small could be another contam entirely different to dactylium.
why'd you take the lid off for the pic? asking for trouble, it's not ready yet even if it's OK

good luck :grin:

It looks healthy to me. I'd birth it in an isolated container in order to keep it from infecting the other cakes. Better safe then sorry.

Looks like mycelium. A sour smell is indicative of bacterial contam.

i agree, taking the lid off only makes the places around where you did it possibly unsterile, :wink:. I Think it looks like Mycelium :smile:

A general contamination rule of thumb is that if it smells rancid, chuck it.  I would.  :smirk:
