kegged this beer and it turned out great , its very high in alc. you can feel it after one glass. I think i will brew again and drop down to 6lbs of wheat LME. I used orange blossom honey. Mybe I should drop 1lb of honey? any thoughts?
Fermentation started very slow, about five days after pitch. then has been going for many days. had to add a 1 1/2 pound of peaches because they where going bad. should I add 3more pounds of peaches after fermentation stops? Was planning to bottle this beer. what do you think.
How do I know if the yeast that I washed has a good cell count ? I will use a starter, but how much of the washed yeast will I need to use for a 5 gallon batch?
I have had good luck with the darker beers, it was when I tryed to make a lighter beer for the wife, It came out tangy. She told me to keep making the ocktoberfest because it was better, Hell this may have worked out better for me anyway
How do you get rid of that tangy taste that you get with extract beers? I have noticed that the darker the beer the taste isnt as tangy. Do lighter beers need to age longer? MY freind gave me an american bock that had only aged for two week and it was wounderfull.
