[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 1952498, member: 85"]"Sick" glass is caused from chemicals in the glass interacting with a liquid substance left in the glass for long periods of time. [USER=70]@Cherryhill[/USER] is probably better able to explain it in proper terms. Sometimes it can be cleaned out. Fill the decanter up to the top of the sickness with rice. Add some ammonia a few drops of Dawn original dishwasher detergent, fill with water, and let sit a week, a month, more depending on how bad the "Sickness" is. Swish the bottle whenever you walk by. You may have to repeat. May not take all of it out, but I usually have luck with this.[/QUOTE]
