Hi,
As an Extract Brewer I've had 3 stouts - 1 Irish Stout, 1 basic stout and now an Oatmeal Stout - go off. As in "off" I mean infection or nasty diacetyl flavoured-off. I want to make a Porter but...
I brewed a great Brown Ale, a really pleasant Pale Ale and my Dark Ale seems fine thus far.
Is there something about stouts that are better as all-grains, or is this a complete fluke on my part?
Cheers,
J
