Just keggd a nice pilsener made from malt extract, some pilsener & wheat grain and hop pellets and fermented with wyeast 2001.
I am carbonating at the moment but had a little taste of the uncarbonated beer and found that it lacked bitterness.
I boiled around 80gms of saaz hop pellets with an AA ratng of 3.8% with my extract. And added another 20gms or so at the end of the boil. It should have been plenty I would have thought.
I made up 23 ltrs of wort.
Will this bitterness level improve with lagering time or will it stay the same? I was expecting more bitterness with the initial tasting.
