Mold or Kahm Yeast on this Ferment? Identifying mold and yeast on fermented food

The most common concern I get from new fermenters is "is this mold?" and "should I throw my ferment away?". Surprisingly, mold is not too common and most of the time what people have is actually a harmless yeast called kahm.
Check out this video so you can see how I tell the difference between mold and kahm yeast on my fermented foods.

I'm a fermentor and though I have accepted kahm yeast, I'm about to experiment with adding an anti-fungal at the top of the fermentation container.

That’s intriguing. Would love to hear how your experiments turn out. I find using more breathable lids help avoid kahm yeast. I like cloth or paper over silicone.
