Will this contaminate my beer and cause noticeable off notes?
I’m about to keg my second 5 gallon batch. My first was a pale ale and was good, but a very very slight sour note when I licked my lips after taking a sip. No one but me noticed it. I noticed a small amount of liquid at the bottom of my keezer but attributed it to condensation the first batch.
This second go is a stout and since it’s darker, the liquid at the bottom of my keezer is definitely from the inside of my carboy. Probably 2 table spoons of liquid escaped over 2 weeks fermenting. I added a photo of my spout on the carboy.
Is this enough to ruin a whole batch? I’m going to soak the spout in a star San before transferring. Any other advice?
