It’s still a bit hard to see but yeah, I think this is probably just yeast floating down.

Nice! Haha I get it, I’ve gone right into growlers before when I wasn’t feeling well just to get it done. Only had one blow once lol.
If you’ve got “buy and old freezer” money for this that’s absolutely the best plan. Get that, or just an old form fridge or whatever, as long as it works, and something like this: https://a.co/d/244s4zY
I have the same one, it’s worked reliably for years.
Congrats! It looks great.
Fair warning about aging in plastic, it might take on some weird flavors ;)
As for the stuff in the bottom, if it’s a white, kinda powdery-floats-into-solution-kind of deal, like silt in water, it’s dead yeast as fermentation continues in the bottle.
As for temp, if you want to get technical fermentation controllers can be fairly inexpensive but the cheapest way is probably find a cooler area of your house then wrap the carboy in blankets / add a seed starter mat to the area to add minor heating nudges until it’s where you want it consistently.
I imagine easier right?
Like, you don’t have to 007 to set up a thirst trap tumbler that eventually slips “weird Dave” in gov HR a malware link to log key strokes…
From the people who brought you “can’t even get a working fucking speaker” comes Orders by Siri, the newest, best, way to get absolutely not what you ordered. At all. Ever.
Yeah. He’ll be mirror-mirror Iron Man from the green universe of angry call backs. We know…
Well yeah ok you could, but for all intents and purposes it’s dead/residual/left over/sediment yeast.
If you’ve were going to harvest yeast better to do it after primary eh.
