I've been brewing since October, and I feel like my beers--though they come out pretty well--seem to have a strong "trub" smell/taste. Like, when I pour myself a draft and take a whiff, and then a swig, it smells/tastes just like the trub that's left after I rack from kettle to primary.
Here's my process: All grain, Coleman X-Treme MLT, aluminum boil kettle, heatstick+propane burner, copper immersion chiller, stainless kegs at 40 degrees.
I usually leave the wort in the primary for about 2 weeks before I rack to a keg. I'll then hit it with serving pressure and wait another 2 weeks until I drink.
So, my question is...what's going on here? Is this a green taste? Should I leave it in the primary longer? Or should I leave it in the keg longer? Weird stuff, for sure...
