Yeah, it's a regular household garden hose, bought from Costco. Absolutely not for drinkingwater. I was using it for the wort chiller. And it sprung a small leak.

I know for a fact that the hose I used for my chiller has some sort of chlorine taste inside it. You can smell it. I just thought that the chlorine smell and taste Gets stronger throughout fermentation.

I know this is a old thread. I have newer garden hose that I use to run water through my wort chiller. And I had a leak into my wort. It was only a few drops. Probably one or two ounces before I noticed. The water from the hose is very chlorinated. I am concerned it is going to make my beer...

I don't really want to. But I would like the experience.

I have only brewed two beers and a hardcider. I have never bottled anything. I acquired everything to keg while my first batch was fermenting. I plan to eventually bottle condition a batch eventually. But I am too lazy. And I brew by myself. And I love it. The best hobby ever

Thanks guys. I'm gonna use it as soon as I can get down to the homebrew store and get some stuff. I really appreciate the input.

I made a cider a few weeks ago. I put the yeast cake in a sanitized Mason jar. And I planned on doing something with the yeast. I failed to put it in the fridge. It has been sitting in the pantry. How long do you guys think it is good for? I'm assuming it is no good. But hopefully I am.wrong.
