Rate my contamination!
    #6759894 - 04/08/07 01:19 AM (17 years, 9 months ago)

Hi guys!
A friend of mine asked me to post some pictures he took of his cakes... He's a little concerned a few discolorations may be a type of contam. What do you guys think?






The bottom most picture seems like the shroom is a bit fuzzy... My friend was worried the shroom had mold on it, but I figured it's just mycelium. What do you think about that shroom, and the rest of stuff I've highlighted here?

Also one other thing... My friend uses a humidifier to keep the cake humidity good, but it seems to be resulting in a bit of standing water beneath the cakes. Is this bad?

Edit: One more thing (might as well get all questions out of the way)... His RH was a little low for a while, and temp a little high (80 degrees, and 85% RH)... So he's concerned that some of the cakes arn't fruiting because of overlay... could this be the case?

nice contamination.

I don't think the first one looks like the water damage from when it was still in the jars.

the second is a definit contam, doesint look good(n)

the third kinda looks like brusing

and the last is just from being to moist.

that's what i think, but hey i'm not an expert.

I don't see any obvious contamination, but the 'dark shit' could use a more in-focus picture. It's probably damage from where you picked up the cake.
