    What are you using to cut holes in your vessels?

    So ive been recruited to provide the kegs for a backyard Oktoberfest..

    While that would make this task a whole lot more enjoyable for myself, i just cant see the people im catering to digging a Saison, i can imagine the yeast's flavour contribution enough to throw them off I usually use my girlfriend as somewhat of a guinea pig for these sort of things, like most...

    is this an infection or just a by product of numerous adjuncts?..

    thanks for all the insight fellas! already looked at that pinned thread to avoid posting already answered questions but no one could confirm whether or not the images like mine above were in fact Aceto infections or not. after a quick Google, all fears of botulism were quickly eliminated...
