a funny smell
    #4787755 - 10/11/05 02:58 PM (19 years, 3 months ago)

Im not quite sure what it is, but one of my bags is not visably growing (it could be startng to grow inside) however it smells sorta like a very strong wine (near the fliter) is this because there is too little air circulation, or possably a contam?

My jars (which has growth visible) has the same smell, only much much weaker

It sounds like bacterial contamination. You have to be sure to position the bag or jar so the filter stays totally dry at all times. If the filter gets wet with grain juice, bacteria will colonize right through it from the outside to your grains.
