    What to do to offset a huge roasted malt bill

    ahh ok then. Well as you probably tell i am a novice at this. I tried a bit out of the fermenter and its fairly full on but on the other hand its only been in the fermenter for 24hrs. I would expect from my experience that the flavours will mellow over time. Appreciate the reply

    Nutty taste? Where is it coming from?

    Hop combo wasn't too bad! It's what I had laying around at the time. I'm a fairly in experienced brewer, why do u ask? Found that the briess pale malt I used can also contribute nutty flavours as well. So this kind of explains why the next brew I did had a less nutty flavor to it. Changed the...

    Nutty taste? Where is it coming from?

    So that's the grain bill. It has a very nutty flavor and I was wondering if it's the amount of victory in it? Or if it's the yeast or something I'm doing wrong..

    Reusing yeast! Wyeast 1272
