I returned home from dinner to see my beer (brown IPA) which was supposed to cold conditioning sitting at 70C. Turns out my controlling unit had malfunctioned and decided that it would try to reach 111C. Thankfully the aquarium heater topped out before then!
Current tasting is not proving very positive and I'm attempting to get the temperature down as quickly as I can. It appears as though all hop flavour and aroma has been scratched out and alcohol has become a lot more prominent.
While I'm going to attempt to rescue this beer if possible I was just wondering if anyone had any advice/reasons why I shouldn't even bother before I dump a whole lot more hops into this.
Cheers,
Leigh
