I’m trying to make a combination of apple and cherry wine and just this morning i racked it from the primary to secondary fermenters. my primary is a 6 gallon best brew bucket made for winemaking especially. i’ve cleaned it using c-brite cleanser, dish soap, and bleach solution and it appears to be clean. the only problem is i cannot get the smell out of it!!! it smells kinda like vomit right now and i can’t use any of my equipment til i can get that clean and odorless. anybody know of any solutions to my problem?
yea i’ve never had this problem before either but then again i’ve never mixxed apple and cherry together so i wasn’t sure or any enzymes i’d have to be aware of. it tastes great and the liquid doesn’t smell at all the same. it’s just the bucket that smells. i’ll try letting it out in the sun tho. fingers crossed.
