Howdy,
so ill get right to it. Last summer after a good dozen batches something found its way into my brew system. i would guess bacteria; the flavors are a bit sour, dry, battery ish, moldy.
what ever this thing is it had tore through 5 batches. I bleached all the glass and replaced all the plastic. but it persisted, showing itself very obviously after primary fermentation.
A few months ago i got some new equipment so i can do full boil 10 gal batches. again got all new plastic equipment. and of course that mother is still there infecting my batches.
i feel seriously beaten down.
any ideas?
at this point i dont know what is going on.
thnks
