This was a California common recipe i found, spent 3 weeks in a primary, and then i kegged it. Let it carbonate, and then tasted. Tasted like ivory soap. I don't know where the taste came from. I clean with oxyclean, and then use star san to sanitize. Never had this problem before. So i let it sit in the kegerator, for another week. Still tasted like soap. So I pulled it outta 3 weeks ago, and it's been sitting there since. Well tonight, i decided to finally poor it out, and behold, it had been sitting there fermenting. Had good pressure on it. I thought using lager yeasts at ale temps, sped things up. And the unfermented wort, might of been the reason it tasted like soap. Any else experience this, or no about the california common fermantation rate?
