Hi Folks,
I moved to all-grain and have had 5 batches turn out ok.
I am happy about that. However, I have a question.
I use a SMASH recipe. 10 lbs 2 row, hops and yeast.
I shoot for the lower end of the temperature range IE 150 degrees.
I read that this will result in a lower alcohol content.
All my AG beer comes out very grainy tasting and has quite a kick to it.
Is there any thing I can do to mellow this stuff out a bit ?
(Lowering the alcohol content and getting the flavor to be a little less grainy)
