I reckon even cans close to their use-by date are still not that great. Time seems to significantly affect the content of cans (don't know the technical reason - oxidation? staling reactions? I dunno). It seems to increase the "sickly sweet" cloying effect.
Gday all
a local shop is currently flogging off old(05 dates) cans for 5 bucks.
the obvious is that these are no good but still wondering if anyone knew if they would be ok to use???
cheers
I on the other hand made the mistake of buying a can that I didn't realise was out of date at a closing down sale (dated 2005! derr :blink: ) So Now I am stuck with it and don't want to just throw it out.
I like Boilerboy's suggestion of using it in a starter, but I was wondering if anyone has had any luck with steeeping some grain or even using an out of date can in a partial? Or is this just a waste of time too?
I had a couple of cans that were given to me about 4 years ago :huh:
Australia bitter I think. I through it in the fermenter a few weeks ago & now its getting cold conditioned.
I say to you all HTFU, I'll take one for the team
Probably have a go at it over the weekend :icon_vomit: so will let you know next week how it went. If I'm still alive
Is the neighbours lawn looking brown yet?Had a go at this last night. Yer were right, fresh is best. I made myself drink 1 full glass before tipping 50L on the lawn, ( Neighbors of course in case it kills it ).
