Hi D., Anybody's guess as to why there's mold on the bottom but my best guess is you're correct. Dirty bottle and it had a higher order mold in the bottle. CS only kills lower order molds and not all of them. If you had said there was a bacteria growing in the bottle I'd really wonder what was going on but a mold leaves too much chance to it being one not affected by CS.
As aside note, why do you filter it? It isn't necessary. You add to the CS whenever you filter it. Chemicals in the filter paper don't make it any better. Also, it isn't necessary to store in dark containers or in a dark place if it's made correctly. We have some stored that's in clear containers and is over 2 years old. Still the same as the day we bottled it. Crystal clear......
