I brewed a coffee porter and bottled it a couple weeks ago. There is an astringent, almost sour bite to it. I don't believe it is an infection; It is more like the underlying bite that most porters have, just very pronounced. I'm curious if 1) my grain bill is just a bad recipe and 2) will the bite from the roasted barley and pale chocolate mellow out after a couple months in the bottle? Here is my grain bill:
75.7% Light LME 7lbs
10.8% Crystal 60L 1lb
8.1% Pale Chocolate 250L 12oz
5.4% Roasted Barley 8oz
