With proper conditioning does the acetic acid go away or just become
muted.
I ask because my big gut doesn't tolerate it.
Be a bummer to wait 6 or 8 weeks and not be able to drink 6 gals.
of good beer!
 
Why does your beer have acetic acid in it? Are you making a Flanders red or other funky beer?

I don't think the acid will go anywhere. If you have an acetobacter infection, it'll like only get more vinegary.
 
lactic acid? i have heard people complain about taste from lactic acid used to lower sparge water pH.
