Default What is this crust at the bottom of the carboy ??

Just did final (hopefully) rack of grape wine made from home grown
grapes.
SG is .994,, wine clear with no off odors. Hope to bottle this week.
When we finished siphoning the 5 gal carboy to a clean one we found
the bottom was covered with a whitish/pink crust.
I flushed it out in the sink to check it.
It was crunchy and about 1/8th inch thick on the bottom of the carboy.
No crust was present on previous rackings.
Any ideas ?? Do I have a problem ??
