Trichoderma on FAA

Hey Everybody, I just started my journey into KNF earlier this year and I have just recently done 2 batches of FAA a week apart. First was 2 liters of whole mackerel chopped up into quarters. Everything seems to be going well with little circles of white bacteria on the surface which I'm assuming is some type of bacillus. 1st batch Second is 6 liters fish waste and salmon heads which has lots of bluey Trichoderma-like fungus growing on the surface and sides where the heads are protruding as the waste breaks down. 2nd batch Is this going to be a problem? And has this already gone bad after 2 weeks. I am getting no bad smells from either and have tried pushing the heads under but they keep resurfacing. used a little LAB and OHN as currently do not have any IMO going. Any suggestions would be appreciated! Also these are in my kitchen cupboard is the Trichoderma like stuff a health hazard? Thanks KNF family much love from AU

Hi, OHN will help keep fat/lipids down, but a dash of IMO4 will really really help keep the top dissolved. I would not use LAB on top of your FAA. To make a good FFA, it takes 3-6 months… if you get it right 1:1 BS/Fish, just let it sit until it's completely liquid. I do this in a glass jar, then put it in the ground, (outside) in a hole an check on it later. What is your temperature in which you’re fermenting at? Are you covering the top with a good 1inch of BS? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9QbfzUnGSQ -Jay KNF Farms
