Lactic Acid in my Keg?
Posted: Wed Jun 10, 2009 5:41 am
So I'm taking baby steps into sour beer & have brewed a Berliner Weisse - well, it's not a Berliner Weisse yet; it's just a wheat beer with an OG of 1.032 & FG of 1.003. I'm going to cheat & sour it with food grade lactic acid & then serve. (I'm thinking 2.5 oz in 5 gal)
Here's the question, if I go to a keg with this, will I be all right to use the keg for "normal" beer in the future? I'm assuming that since lactic acid isn't really bacteria that I'll be okay with a good cleaning with PBW but would be grateful for advice from the BN!
