In doing research on some off flavors I have been fighting with, I came across the topic of beerstone.
Anybody have any good pictures of "beerstone" in a keg? I have seen some pictures of it in keg lines, but none of it in a keg.
My keg lines look like some of the beerstone lined pictures I have seen. I am going to order some new lines this week. My kegs look really good on the inside. They feel smooth to the touch (I read that if they don't feel smooth, you might have beerstone).
Anyway, I was wondering what, if any, is the off-flavor produced by beerstone? Can it be described? Or is it just a harboring place for bacteria that can lead to off flavors?
Thanks,
D
