    About a year ago I made my first Lambic the only sour beer i've ever made. And the only time i've really had a pretty intense looking pellicle on the top of the beer. I'm ready to bottle the beer now, are there any different steps I should take when dealing with a pellicle on the top?

    Does it mater if any gets in the bottle?

    Simply rack from underneath. Try to be careful not to pull any ofthe pellicle in the hose but even if you did it's not a big deal. Send me a bottle too!
