Fermentation Specalist
The last 2 batches ive made, an apa and iipa, both suffered the same fate. It's hard to describe but the closest thing i've found on here is described as band-aids. It's sort of a plastic type taste. I thought it was my keg line so i replaced it but the taste is still there.
I just moved to a new county a few months ago and ive brewed 3 batches here. The first one was a chocolate porter and it was awesome. The only main difference is I used 100% bottled spring water for that beer. I then used half spring and half tap for the apa and 100% tap for the iipa. The iipa i think was way worse than the apa so im leaning towards this being a water issue but im really not sure.
Ive been brewing for 4 years now and these are my first bad batches. I dont think it's an issue with my brewing processes or sanitation. Any ideas? I want to brew my annual Xmas beer but can't really afford for this to keep happening. Thanks!
