I recently made a "Better Red Than Dead" by BIAB.
Bottled.
When I open a bottle, I get a very strong strawberry ice cream aroma.
It's a bit hard to describe the taste but I think it may just be a strawberry overload and doesn't taste all that nice.
I have been working thru possible causes and one I have come up is under aerating my wort. Would this be enough to cause such strong Esters?
I had issues with the burner also and had trouble getting a good strong boil so let it go for 75 mins.
I was also trying a new decanting method and stuffed it up and ended up with everything in the fermenter.
Sipping on it now and still can't tag the flavour. Not corn. Not medicinal.
Any suggestions I could contemplate and work with would be much appreciated.
Now I feel like some strawberry ice cream. Hope I don't look like it to.
I am starting to think strong strawberry and too malty combined.
