I don't know what went wrong on these home roasted malts but they really did not do my beer any favors. Canned corn and some sort of sour dough bread dominate the palette on this brew. Its been in bottles nearly four months now and I actually think the corn flavour is becoming more prominent.
It was my first time using home roasted malts. Considering I use the same process every time I brew and this is the only beer to get such overpowering off-flavours.
I have heard of others having good experience roasting their own specialty malts but this experience was enough to scare me into spending the extra few dollars on buying it next time around.
I have only poured a couple beers down the toilet... But those bottles could be better served holding good tasting beer.
Should I dump it? Should I try to ride it out?
