My brother and I have been making kits for about 2 1/2 years. we got a bucket of Chilean Zin Sept 2010. Was a balanced bucket, Brix 23, TA .65, so2 50 ppm.
I think we did all the right things, sulfited, pitched yeast, and resulfited after 2 months in the secondary 1/4 tsp per 6 gal. 4 months later resulfited. Today over 1 year later it has nasty looking foam on top, smells bad and tastes really bad. Something went wrong but not sure what. It has been racked a total of 4 times. Always topped off. Has anyone had this happen?
Help,
