last night i was playing with some wort i had left over from a Higher gravity beer the wort was 3.5 gallons of .o41 mostly pale malt any way i was lazy just wanted to rack it over and tired so i racked in straight into a 3galon carboy i had ( SMART RIGHT). cracked my carboy and wort was rushing out so i grabbed a bucket i had put the wort in there and cleaned up. i just left the wort in the bucket with the top on and today i picked up 2 1 gallon carboys to play with i opened up the bucket and the wort had a kinda oily like surface so i sanitized a spoon and tasted it the flavor was off for sure it was not a sour but a tank and left the really dry tast in my mouth. the wort sweetness is there still.
what do you think i caught ? i was guessing lacto this wort has actually been sitting around for longer then 1 day in a sanitized bucket with the top on the second bucket was not sanitized i was more worried about the mess.
