So it seems that my 3 gallon Better Bottle purchased in 2006 or 2007 has an infection. The last batches fermented in it have a certain "twang" to them. It's not quite medicinal or band aid, and it's not horrible, terrible tasting. It's just quite obvious that something is not right with the beer. I'll probably taste another one or two to see if I can nail down what it tastes like.
I have 24 or so bottles with the latest infected batch in them. So my question is this...is there anything special that I need to do with the bottles besides dump and then sanitize like normal? Because they have an infected batch in them right now, should I oxi-clean them or take further than normal measures before they get filled up again? Thanks!
