Hi all,
In nearly all of my all-grain beers so far I have noticed what I think may be oxidation.
I BIAB no-chill and up until now have been glad-wrapping my fermenter and securing it with a rubber band as many people on here do because my fermenter won't fit in my fridge. For the brew I am currently fermenting, however, I have gone back to using the airlock to eliminate the glad-wrapping as being the issue.
What else could be causing this flavour? I am fairly confident that it is oxidation as it seems to fit the descriptions, i.e. cardboardy smell, dulled malt and hop aroma, kinda dry and papery tasting etc.
