Off flavor from shanks
Hello. I have 4 new SS shanks that are producing a nasty metallic taste in my beers. It was really bad when I first installed them, so I soaked them, the SS nipples, and the ventmatic faucets in BLC overnight. This helped a lot, but it still affects any beer left in the shank for more than a couple of hours. Once I pull the ounce or so out of the shanks and dispose of it, I get a glass of good beer.
Any suggestions for getting rid of this nasty taste and smell?
Any hints would be greatly appreciated.
Mike
