Since getting this brewing sys, most of the beer brewed has had a strange flavor to them, almost a hoppy flavor but different. These are beers I have brewed before that were increduble, now I dont drink much of my beer! Stopped at a newer brew pub for some good brew and theirs was almost undrinkable, every one had the same taste that tasted like a bad hop, similar to what I taste in my beers but much stronger.. I did drink one (my wife sampled every one and ordered a bloody mary, no chaser) and still had the taste in my mouth hours later. After pondering on this, I thought that perhaps they ran lots of water through the grains to get every ferment-able out of it and maybe what it was is tannins? Hence, my sys has a herms unit on it and I keep water circulating constantly during mash. Is it possible that recirculating constantly would draw tannins out? Same yeast as always, safale O5. As I now have good control on mash temps and a temp control on my fermenter that I never had before, the beer should be very good. Any Ideas? Thanks
Doing some remodeling in my home and the Wife is tired of beer things in the way so she insisted I build a brew room. Still aways from being done but moving things in it! A bit of wiring and time to brew!!
