Hey everyone,
I believe I am getting poor hop utilization. All of my beer seem to be lacking in that hop bitterness, or tasting too sweet.
I am doing full boils of 5-gallon batches on my stove. I am not sure if I am getting a really vigorous boil, but it's as much as my system can do. Everything else seems fine.
Should I just adjust for my environment and increase my bittering hop additions on a regular basis to compensate? Should I do longer boils?
Any tips would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Ben
