I brewed a fruit beer that at the end seemed like it had the beginnings of a pelicle forming. To play it safe I went down to the local brewery and asked some of my friends there for some iodine based sanitizer, which is supposed to kill anything it touches. I added it in the appropriate proportions, let it soak for a few days and now it is completely stained orange! The pic doesn't really do it justice. I have never seen a stain like this.
The way I see it I have 3 options:
1. Ignore the stain and brew in it anyway
2. Find something to take the stain off (PBW, bleach?)
3. Thrash it or use it for non brewing purposes
Thoughts?
