    This looks like a specific kind of… fungus?..aging?. I can’t find an English word for it, but it looks like the black spots you get in clothes when you leave them in a wet pile for too long. In Dutch, is called “spocht”.

      I wiped them off with my finger the first time, it looks like chalky white powder.

      The next batch of water we boiled looked fine. The batch afterward had this residue again
