Actually, I had been thinking about this and popped back in to take another look at that picture. Warren's right, it might just be normal flocculation for that kind of yeast. I've never used Dusseldorf yeast--and honestly never had mold growth--but I'm not sure that's mold. How long was it in the fermenter?
