Hi everyone. I've recently finished a keg filler that I tasted last night right after i force carbed it. Recipe as follows:
1.7 kg coopers pale ale
1.5 kg Morgans extra pale lme
0.5 kg dex
0.5 kg DME
US05 yeast fermented @ 18deg
23L total vol.
It tastes pretty boring, no off flavours or anything just fairly bland. I wasn't expecting huge flavour or anything given the ingredients used, but it really is a bit boring for my palate. Maybe it's too early to be judging it?
I've done a bit of research and found some topics on keg hopping.
I have 40g of Armarillo left over from a batch made on the week end. If i throw this into a sanitized stocking and place it straight into the keg for a few days will it give this brew some more punch?
Is 40g of Amarillo too much, or should I halve this to 20g? Keg volume is about 18L at the moment.
I don't mind hoppy, bitter beers. But don't want to completely wreck this brew by having it taste like a glass of hop pellets. Any advice appreciated!
