So I've been doing BIAB for 3-years now and have decided to start doing the igloo cooler MT / HLT process. First batch went smoothly from a process standpoint, but wort sample tastes very tannic, which I've never had before. Process details below. Any thoughts on where I went wrong? Also - any chance it will dissipate during fermentation?
Recipe:
4 lb Pils
4 lb Vienna
4 lb Munich
1 lb Caramunich
1 oz Tett (90-min, 5% AA)
1 oz Tett (15-min, 5% AA)
4-gal strike at 165 degF. Stabilized at 158 degF, added cold water to get to 150 degF within a minute. Temp held steady for entire mash.
Added 2-gal boiling water to get to 162 degF for mash out. Fly sparged with 170 degF water over 30 minutes. Thermometer in grain bed never exceeded 165 degF. Got about 70% efficiency and boil was uneventful.
