Standing up for the Aussie Bottler
It could be due to an infection (in which case I guess the flavour will get stronger rather than weaker) but there's a hint of medicine/clove in my about to be bottled brew.
If it's due to chlorephenols, will it dissipate given enough ageing time or is it there to stay?
I use bleach/vinegar for sanitaion although I'm usually fairly cautious in rinsing with hot water afterwards then again with sodium met solution. However the sod met is rinsed with cold tap water right before use. I've done this a fair few times and had no other brew taste this way but it seems a potential culprit nonetheless.
