Hi HBT.
Around two months ago, I decided to do a quick test batch of some cider made from store-bought apple juice. I usually ferment in either glass carboys or plastic buckets made for the purpose, but this time I just couldn't be bothered since it was only a 3 liter batch, so I fermented in two 1.5L water bottles.
My question is:
After it had fermented out, I put the bottles in my fridge and they have been there for around two months. I know that there might be some leeching of chemicals from the plastic, especially because of the alcohol, but I am not sure whether it is a (health) problem after two months? The cider itself is around 6% ABV.
Thank you for your answer in advance.
