Anyone else noticed a plastic flavour in the fresh wort kits they have brewed?
I had noticed this before but thought perhaps it was something with the process the brewer used to do his brews, but I encountered it again last night in the products of another brewer. Thing is with this other brewer, his K&K beers were fine, but all of his AG fresh wort brews had that same garden hose sort of flavour.
My guess is it has something to do with the cheap plastic they use to make the cubes? Perhaps it is better or worse by the amount of time the wort is in the cube, sort of like kit twang?
Interested to hear of other peoples thoughts on this.
Cheers,
Kev
