I tried a batch of skeeter pee that just completely cleared over the past few days. This was the first thing I have brewed that had the "rhino farts" with the ever so nasty rotten egg smell while brewing. The smell went away after about a week and I was under the impression that it would not affect the taste of the wine at all so I had no worries. I just racked my skeeter pee and took a small taste and almost threw up. It tasted somewhat like the nasty egg smell I had weeks ago with it. The only other way to explain the taste and smell of it now is something like bitter seeds. Almost if you could imagine crunching lemon seeds or muscadine seeds. It's that type of smell and taste - really bitter and something not right with it. I have read about using copper pipe and all kinds of other fancy stuff but I don't have any of that. Please tell me how to rescue my skeeter pee! Is this from the H2S or is it oxidized ? Or something else ? Please help! Thank you everyone in advance!
