My first batch of beer went sour. It smelled like vinegar, tasted sour had some weird dark brown slime on the surface. think it's mostly due to me not filling the primary well enough, some unfermented grainy crap got pushed up along the neck and probably spread from there. Still odd that it happened. Maybe its because I cooled it down outside? Anyways my question is repitching the yeast from it. I washed some of the sour beer. Just by letting it settle in a jar and pouring the top off, adding water settle pour water repeat. Then I stuck the jar in the fridge to let the yeast fall to the bottom. Now... The jar of beer smells like beer is supposed to and its not sour. So do you guys think it's safe to repitch? I also was thinking of pitching that with another packet of yeast.
