I don't check my jars thoroughly often but I came home today and found small orangish spots mostly around broken rye grains. 2 of them in my very colonized B+'s.
pic1 - one my my b+'s, the orange is a little exagerated under that light but you get the idea
pic2 - i lifted the cake and saw orange colored bubbles
pic3 - a larger spot, orangeish color isn't as intense.



The jars have been a little wet. No smell coming from the jars. I'd like some input before I waste time casing these.

How did you prep your Rye? Looks like it may have just been wet. There is a chance that the color is a bi-product from the Rye being cooked..??

good move. if you havnt thrown it out, it would be interesting to re-clutivate that and see what would have grown.

It's bacteria. There's more than just Bacillus there. It looks like you might have breathed on the jar, syringe or needle before you inoculated. Those pics should be in the gallery for ID purposes. Toss it. RR
