on 11/20/09 I added 1 1/2 pounds of maple syrup to 2 gallons of porter (originally started on 11/13/09) along with one gallon of water and 1 pound of DME.
Bottled on 12/7/09 and by 12/21 was carbonated OK, and tasted like a nice porter, but no maple flavor. Was not happy about the lack of maple flavor, buy Hey, it was a good porter.
Had another bottle on 12/30 and the maple flavor is BACK!!
So it looks like I just need to be more patient with the maple flavoring.
