Hi matplat, I experienced this when I moved from k&k to all grain. Every batch had a band aid smell and a strong plastic chemical taste. After weeks of frustration and multiple lawn food batches, advice from local brew club was chlorine in the water. Bought a carbon filter from the big green...

This project has been on my todo list ever since I saw it ... and i've finally gotten around to doing it. Great little project to tinker with, not much soldering and the instructions on how to make it cheap are dead easy to follow. Thought though I would share my experience with running it with...
