Ok,
so i am getting a flavour(s) in quite a few of my beers. It is not apparent in the heavier beers but is in the my lighter beers.
It is also made worst by the fact that I have been using Saflager as a yeast as I had a budget deficit problem which seems to be just yaaah!
The flavour is slightly sour, not sweet of buttery. It is not bad and most friends who dont know better cant taste it..........but i can and it really bugs me.
I think it might be astringent flavour but I cant really see where I can be causing this, i dont oversparge and my temp control is really good.
Has anyone got any ideas? Could it be the shit water in adelaide? If so has anyone any recommendations for a good water chemistry book?
