  Don't want to tell you again but I think you're a bit too fast with your fermentation schedule.
  I mean, If you're happy with it its OK ,but you should wait a bit more, especially with such
  "heavier" b...

  I,ve never tasted any diacetyl using US-05 . Underpitching, under-aerating and even high water
  PH can stress the yeast . Not to mention plastic buckets which ,IMPO, can't be used for

  Why do you even try to please BMC drinkers. They eventually find out what crap have they been

  homebrew can tast...

  I live in Croatia(Europe) and have extremely hard water suitable only for dark beers. I have to
