Apple flavor
I'm new to brewing, when I took my FG on my current batch it tasted like green apple flavor. Do I bottle as normal or toss it? Any help would be great!

Yeast nutrient and time are your friends. |

There isn't anything in it that is going to hurt you. Just something that doesn't taste very good. If you have a garden, your plants might like some. Even if it is undrinkable. |
IF it's under a month old, in primary, then give it a few more weeks and check it again. If it's been a week since you pitched the yeast, for god's sake leave it the F alone and let the yeast do it's job.
"green apple" flavor is GREEN BEER as in too bloody young to think about bottling. If you fermented on the warm side, then it's probably why it's even more evident. Just give it more time and check it again later. 99% of the time, new brewers will rush things due to being told by the LHBS short time frames. Without tight temperature control, pitching the right amount of yeast at the start, great oxygenation methods, those time frames (99% of the time) are bunk. Especially for ales. |
