Subject: Acetic acid production limiting
Text item: Text Item
I would like to know ways of limiting the acetic acid production which occurs in
my pLambics.
The current culprits I know of are:
- Too much airspace in the top of your cask.
- Spilt/dribbled lambic on the outside of the cask which can attract fruit
flies. The fruit flies sucreat acetic acid like stuff in the presence of
alcohol (so I was told by winemakers).
Are there others such as wort composition?
thanks!
Martin Wilde
