Is it normal to be dark brown and leave a yellow residue in a glass; also taste a bit oily with a momentary acrid aftertaste (a bit like burnt rubber)

Yes. .but I've found if u chase it immediately with shot of V8 Splash it will kill after taste more quickly.

Yes it is normal for it to be dark brown and leave a yellowish tinge in the cap. I did not taste or sense any oiliness or have an aftertaste that seemed to be like burnt rubber. I selected the fruit punch flavor. I always chase the capful with a small spoonful of peanut butter.

Yes the normal appearance is dark brown with a yellow oily residue from the oil content. The aftertaste is due to the apple cider vinegar that is used as a preservative along with other ingredients that have strong tastes.

It doesn't taste like burnt rubber to me. For one thing, I have never tasted burnt rubber. Lol It has naturally occurring iron and lots of B12 and many many other great things in it, coconut oil and omega 3 oils etc...It is naturally preserved in apple cider vinegar, instead of man made chemical preservatives...READ the ingredients and you can understand why it taste like it does. It keeps me well and feeling full of energy at 62 years of age.

Hi, Its Usually has a slight color to it...But Never Brown...Its Mostly Clear...Possibly you received a more potent bottle...I notice when I get to the end of the bottle it tends to be a bit darker with a slightly stronger taste...Hope This helps !

I've had things that I've touched with a hot iron by accident that melted and turned brown. It looked like burned sugar, maybe. They were small spots on the edge of the sole plate but I was able to remove them with this cleaner. It may take more than one application though.

All of the bottles I have had have been a very dark brown-orange color. Because I didn't care for the consistency of the liquid just in water, I have always put it in juice so I can't really say if the taste is bitter or if one bottle has tasted different from another bottle. You raise a good question though. Perhaps it would be best to reach out to the manufacturer to determine what color the product should be when it is freshest.

These B vitamins do have an odor - it's normal. I just hold my nose and pop a capsule with no problems. A bright orange-yellow color is also normal. If the capsules develop dark brown spots, a mottled appearance, the capsules are still safe to take but their strength may be degraded. Always check the use-by date on the bottom of the bottle, and keep them in a cool, dry place. (Note: your bathroom cabinet is NOT a dry place.)

So sorry you had a reaction. It looks like it should just be oil from wild orange peel. Is it possible that your co-worker had residue from a previous oil in the diffuser...or maybe the co-worker mixed it with a carrier oil?

i don't think so as we get it regularly and have not seen a difference in the last batch that came this week. May be because of the weather, when it is solid the color seems lighter, when it gets warm inside it becomes more liquid like and hence darker too.

I've been using distillers for many years and have never noticed a burnt or rusty taste. I don't use the charcoal filter which you could try if you haven't already. Maybe it's something in your water. I use it with both well water and city water and never notice any difference in the end product. Maybe it's my age over 80 and my senses have deteriorated along with my joints.

I have noticed browning at the bottom of mine, as well, although I have had it for several months now and use it regularly. I first noticed it after food I was making still smelled like the broccoli and I wasn't making broccoli. I checked the reservoir and noticed burnt-looking brownish residue. I tried to clean it using a bottle brush with the sponge-tip; it helped but did not get it all off. I have watched very carefully and have not noticed any impact on the food (no discoloration, flakes, or change in taste). I am VERY PLEASED with the Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker!!

There was a stronger metallic taste upon first using the bottle even though I gave it a rinse. It has since faded and I notice it every once in a while...i might be sensitive to it, but it's worth noting. Good luck with you're decision.

It is a yellowish hue normally. However, if it gets concentrated (from sitting around a long time) it can be more of a dark brown color.

Hi Sandra,My color remained the same dark brown throughout my duration of usage of this oil.

I know what you are talking about -- I get a smell from mine. It is almost like a burnt plastic smell. It notice it when I clean up after making the coffee. It seems to be coming from the area where the filter and water is stored. It still makes a great cup of coffee so I tend to ignore the odor. I'm hoping it lessens overtime.

I have read reviews from others that say they have noticed a metallic taste. I have had mine for several months, and have not noticed a problem with the taste.

Absolutely. I suggest using 90% or higher if possible and make sure to rinse with hot water for a minute or two. Ive noticed if you dont rinse it well enough it leaves a white residue, not sure if its from the alcohol or remaining oils though lol

I use the French dark roast and they are oily. There is no problem! The beans I use are virtually black!
