As promised, my test wedge of ttbvi on wheat after ~2 days of recovery.

And the icky side.

I suspect this is condensation and not bacteria. Pans are putting out a lot of "heat", especially when they are recovering and that can lead to
excessive condensation and the fact that the wet spots are all on one side is supporting my assumption, should be all over the jar really and
not as isolated as it is. Can you think of a reason why this might have happened, have you had jars lined up next to each other and was
the side with the wet spots facing outwards for example?

I made a post about this a while ago.

have to admit that the photos are not the absolute best in that writeup and I am working on updating the post with better images and some more
supporting information. Just started to take a few temperature readings of glass jars which are left in the open compared to ones which were kept in
an insulated box. The average temperature difference is 2 degree Celsius and the jars kept in the box show less condensation spots but this is still
very much a work in progress and needs more data before putting it out there.

Just a couple of photos showing the temp difference of jars under the above mentioned storage conditions. The warmer jar naturally colonized a bit
faster. This is just to find out the baseline temperature differences and I will take readings of jars that underwent a late shake in due course.




So all I'm saying is give it a chance. If it was all looking clean and colonizing at pan speed before the shake and the wet spots are not gooey
then it's possible that this jar is good after all.

I'm certainly interested how this is working out if you give it a go.

Well I thought most pans are a lot faster. My ttbvi takes 3 days at 1/3 ratio 72f. It smells good in the tub?
