Gday, Been a reader for a while now and thought someone could give me a few ideas on this one.
I have two batches of lager in my fridge at the moment, one is an all grain pilsener and one is an old lager kit i had laying around.
This is only my second all grain brew and my first real lager. The problem is that the brews smell quite bad and the ag tastes even worse. Been doing a bit of reading and it seems like the problem is dms through sanitation. The ag tastes like corn/vegetables very strongly and smells like it and the kit does too but to a lesser extent. Ive never had this problem before and this is the first time i have fermented at low temps (8 or 9 degrees). Im sorta thinking theyre infected becuase they are quite repulsive, but im not 100% sure.
Any help would be great, thanks guys this site rocks!
