Last few batches I've made from kits especially the lighter coloured ales have had a taste like Andrews liver salts , after emptying one I rinse it and put a milton sterilising tablet in and fill it with water and put the bung in until it's ready to be filled with the next batch , I'm wondering if the taste is coming from a residue built up by the sterilising tablet .
I've just kegged another batch ,this time I've bottled some as well to compare .
