Sigh...is this contam?
    #21106094 - 01/12/15 07:05 AM (9 years, 4 months ago)

Hello all,

So I birthed the cakes yesterday and I had two that showed the same blue coloration in the pictures so I dumped them assuming it was contam. Now all 4 of the the cakes shown have just completed their dunk and I was about to do the roll but I saw the same coloration. When I birthed the cakes that is the area my hands were on and I did not use med gloves but I did sanitize prior to handling.

Second I would like to know how to eliminate this issue for future endeavors. Any ideas how this happened?

TL;DR - Is this contam or not and how did this happen?

I think that is just myc bruising from handling them.  That sucks that you threw the other one away...

Is that where you picked up your cakes? They do bruise easily, and that is the color of bruising.

Typical bruising.

Blue mold doesn't look like myc. It will appear on top of it, not co-existing. You'll understand if you ever see it. Mold also brushes away and leaves a stain on your hand. If you touch bruising you only get more blue.

That means you need more FAE to promote more humidity. Your terrarium is too dry.

This was prior to dunk and roll. They have been in the incubation chamber for the last 3 weeks and I birthed the cakes yesterday and put 4 of the cakes in the dunk yesterday and will be putting them in the fruiting chamber today.
