Title: Damn Infection
Post by: Chris on November 21, 2014, 08:49:16 AM
Just went down to the basement to bottle my scotch ale. (http://tapatalk.imageshack.com/v2/14/11/21/de7f318532830c4885bd823ed15b96c3.jpg) I drained off the bottom 15 litres and bottled anyway but I think it's fed. it doesn't smell or taste bad.

it's probably fine, infection or not.
after all the yeast is just an infection that we want.
So long as it tastes/smells good, then work away :)

Could be acetobacter either. Takes time to work and slowly turns alcohol (not beer) to vinegar #bi-losing
that's what I thought. Just have to drink it really fast.
