Ok, so I have brewed quite a few AG batches by now and I have my process down pretty good. I consistently get 75% efficiency, and I always aerate well. I pitched my first package of Windsor yeast on a Porter to give it a whirl. FG ended up being 1.027!!!!
At first, I was pissed. I am in dire need of a Porter or Stout, and I felt badly robbed. Although, after thinking awhile, the flavour of the beer was good although a bit too sweet. Perhaps when its carbed and chilled it will be a decent swill in the evening after dinner or something like that. The sweetness should dampen when chilled.
Anyone else have a simliar experience? The taste of this beer after it has conditioned will determine if I even use this yeast again. Not too optimistic at this point, but time will tell!
