Is it possible or you to over sanitize equipment and lead to an off taste in your batch of beer?
Star San breaks down into yeast food. As long as you are at or below the recommended dilution you're good.

And when it was time to bottle it had a funny smell to it and didn't taste great. And te second batch had that same funny taste, but I switched to star San... Not sure if I didn't clean it out well enough because I didn't use pbw or anything like that to help clean it prior star San..
Okay thank you, if I was to use bottles water would you recommend spring or distilled? I've heard of people using both...
