Hi all,
I been brewing from a couple of years now and have been enjoying it, and the beers. Only problem is many of my beers seem to be turning out like cider once they are kegged and gassed.
Out of the fermenter they usually taste ok - then the final product... cidery beer.
I mostly have the trouble with lighter beers. Usually I'm brewing largers or ales from K&K using fermentis yeasts. I have temp control and haven't had any notable infections to date (find a big bit of wood to touch).
Could it be as simple as pitching to hot? By just a couple of degrees - this is the only thing I can think of, but would love to hear any suggestions so I can go over my process.... again.
Cheers,
Hendo.
