Quick and diry guide to fermenting fruit - cider and wine
Can a pellicile stick to the bottom of a bottle? I got something white and snotty at the bottom of my mead once. It was in a bottle that wasn't sterilised just rinsed with washing up liquid and forgot about for a year.
There is no way it was yeast sediment.
Maybe pectin?
I've never had it, the closest thing I can think of is a vinegar mother, but you'd definitely notice that.
