I am trying to make a clone of BJ's Restaurant's "Jeremiah Red" it is a malty red, with very little hop flavor.
I boiled approximately 1 - 1.25 gallons and added hops at the following rate:
.75 oz Northern Brewer 8% AA - 60min
.75 oz Northern Brewer 8% AA - 30min
.5 oz Northern Brewer 8% AA - 10 min
I did not put the pellets in a bag, I just threw them in the pot. When transferring to the primary I poured through a kitchen strainer.
After tasting the beer which was pulled for a hydrometer reading it had a very strong hop flavor. If I rack to a carboy (which will need to be purchased), will this help reduce the hop flavor by getting the beer off of the hops that remain in the pail, or has this already become a flavor of the beer because it has set on the hops for 2+ weeks?
