Does pans, or cubes, metabolize isopropyl alcohol into acetone?
    #27767888 - 05/07/22 09:09 PM (2 years, 8 months ago)

Just mixed up grain bags a few days ago, sprayed the gas exchange filters with isopropyl alcohol to reduce risk of contamination before mixing, and now 2 of the 3 bags have a smell of acetone.  In humans, isopropyl is metabolized to acetone.  Does the same happen with pans and cubes?  Or is this a sign of contamination?  I haven't heard of other growers being too concerned about a little isopropyl getting into/onto things.

I've accidentally sprayed iso on my tub thinking it was my water sprayer and got full flushes. Acetone/nail polish remover/alcohol (fermentation) smell is most likely a yeast infection
