<pre>We put some table olives in brine changing it every day for about 10 days and
then put fresh rainwater in and oil on top. We now have what looks like a mould
layered in between the water and the oil. How do we stop this happening in
future? Can anyone let us know where we have gone wrong. We used rainwater all
the time as that is all we have where we live.
