I was just wondering how you can tell if a batch has been spoilt. I had doubts about a brew recently when I could only get the boil up to 65C because of a problem with the equipment. The beer tastes bad but I dont know if it because I used 125g black patent or if it is due to other bacteria than the actual yeast. So is there any other way of identifying a spoilt bacth other than just bad taste? If you drink a beer that has been spoilt does this present any sort of risk to my health?
