what are the chances of mold on poppys? ive only first tried them today (started with 3 pods, brewing 2 more now), only thing is im allergic to penniclin and i guess that means mold too, there is alot of strange grey/dark marks on the outside but seems everyone seems to get that.
Most people don't worry about the typical dark dots on the outside of pods. Personally I will throw out any pods that:
1. Are obviously moldy on the outside or severely discolored on the outside.
2. Have any type of black or white stringy/hairy stuff on the inside.
3. Have what look like and are refered to as "coffee grinds" on the inside.
4. Have a strong + foul odor.
there's a bunch of info on moldy pods in other threads if you look around for a bit. including some pics.
