 Foamy yellow liquid in Rye Grain jar

In the bottom of several of my friends grain jars. There is this foamy bubbly yellow liquid in a few spots. Anyone ever heard of this, or is it the waste of the mycelium maybe? Thanks!!!

Sounds like mycelial metabolites. This usually happens when you have your temperatures too high, and/or the jar is overcolonized.
Do a search for "myco-pee," or similar. I believe there are pics of this (pretty common) problem...

I had something like that once, it smelled a lot like fermentation. I guess they got contaminated with a yeast, but nobody could tell me for sure. It didn't seem too harmful, I was able to salvage most of the grain.

If the mycelium stops growing or if the growth is weak then it's contamination.
