I have an off flavor on my beer!! And it is the 2 time it happened to me I am trying to find out the reason or cause.
My first batch was a no boil kit just mix water and add extract i tasted the beer right after i took a sample to take my OG and it tasted good after 6 weeks i keg the beer and i forced carb.. the beer sometimes tasted ok some times was not drinkable (funny how the flavor changed with only one day of difference), the taste is like metal and Astringent at the end I ended up drinking the beer but now I finished a second batch and it tasted awesome before putting it on the primary, before I keg the beer I tasted again and it tasted like a real good beer just flat, i put it on the fridge and let it cool to 40F and forced carb @ 12psi This second batch was an extract kit and I did boil 2.5 gallons, Yesterday I tried the beer and the same off flavors !!!!
I am using a 20oz paintball cylinder with a dual gauge regulator, using spring water from the store. I washed everything carefully and sanitized everything using Iodophor. However this time I am using a different keg.
Two different beers, 2 different kegs, different procedures, the only constant is the off flavors and the CO2 tank. The beer is definitely not over carbonated.
Is it possible that the co2 is the cause of this off flavor??
Please help!!!
