So I put up a post a while ago about a pumpkin ale that I did that appeared to get a lacto infection. I have it bottle and it's a little sour but I think with age it will turn out good.
This is a recipe from Austin Home brew which is a cider but with specialty grains and hops. It's been in the primary for about 3 weeks. I have opened it twice to take a sample. Both times I sanitized the measuring cup I used to draw it out. Here is the same broken ice build up at the top.
I cleaned all of my items with hot water and antibacterial dish soap, then used hot water and bleach, and then used star sans.
What am I doing wrong? I'm getting frustrated. This is the third time in a row that this has happened. I'm getting to the point that I feel like giving up because all I keep getting is this result.
