I just Kegged my first run of caribou slobber and it tastes/smells a little off. I have all new lines, faucets, QD's the whole nine yards. Everything was cleaned with PBW and sanitized with Star-san, all cleaning was done well, racked and kegged on foam.
The beer just after kegging (pulled though system) smells a little like sulfur. I am waiting for it to fully carb before I dump it but it is worrying me. I used San Antonio tap water and did a full volume boil and was pretty though on cleaning. The sulfur smell kinda reminds me of starsan smell, since I racked and kegged on foam, could this have contaminated the batch?
I read the forum on carbonic acid and contaminated CO2, I got my tank at a fire store, is this an issue?
Hope I get the drink a home brew it will get better, worried...
