So, I brewed my first sour beer a few weeks ago, an amazingly tasty Ginger Lime Berliner Weisse, but I noticed something. My DIY QuickCarb and my picnic faucet lines all smell like the beer (guessing the acid did something to them). I cleaned at length with PBW and then Saniclean (StarSan low foaming version), but the smell is still there. It's also in the rubber stopper that held the airlock (even though krausen never touched it).
My question is this...will actual Beer Line Cleaner (BLC or similar) take that out, or do I have to replace my lines. My keezer also has the Berliner Weisse in it right now. The keezer faucet and picnic tap both have the anti-microbial expensive lines. I'd hate to have to throw them out after every beer if it is a soured one.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
