Acetaldehyde

[Donoroto]

Some find red apple desirable and pleasant, but I still hate it.

No cider for you!

Well, just pulled a sample of the Putin Huylo, green apple taste is, for the most part, gone. Think I might be able to detect just a hint of it, but I'm not sure. Only problem with the beer now. is after repitching it with 497, it has that funk in the aroma that I seem to always get with that yeast until it has lagered a bit. AND as @The Brew Mentor called it, it's a bit overcarbed right now, I can bleed off a little co2 until it gets right though. Probably needs 3 weeks additional lagering now...at least I dodged a dumper.

Can scrub it with CO2 to get rid of the funk, but will need to get the pressure down a bit to do it

It's getting better, the funky odor is normal for the Mauribrew, goes away pretty fast. Not sure what it is, but I get it every time I use that yeast(and it's pretty much a house yeast for me). I keep trying different yeasts every now and then, but I keep coming back to 497. There is nothing really Earth shatteringly special, it's just pretty neutral, clears very nicely and is almost sickeningly predictable.

Sounds like 34/70 for me except it can fart sulphur sometimes if I don't treat it right
