well, i thiunk this stems from drawing a sample about a week before i noticed it. i sanitized my baster and drew a sample of my beer. the beer is still fine, so i think i must have sat the baster on something without giving it any thought.
it was quite tart a week and a half ago, but i havn't tasted it since.i started ferment on march 1st. i think ill just roll with it and see what happens as ive been interested in the whole spontanious ferment thing for awhile. ill probibally just throw the bottle out...its just a 5 dollar water bottle
dont worry about the oxyclean, i use bleach and vinigar. it seems like people frown on that here too.
