Ok guys I have a question. Why is my wort always darkening?
I copied the recipe Ferocious IPA from Midwest Supplies. Followed it closely and as I look at it in my carboy in primary it's dark.
I used all DME in thinking it would make it lighter. What am I doing wrong?
It called for 6lbs GOLDEN, 3lbs AMBER, I added the hops and then yeast. It was a 30 min steep with 4 oz of grain, and 60 min boil, also used 6 gal water to anticipate evaporation and sediment to get a true 5 gal batch.
This is my 7th brew so I feel confident I know what I'm doing but am open to ANYTHING you all may suggest.
