I have brewed two pale ale kits. One was extract and the other all grain. Both have turned out okay but exceptionally bitter. The extract kit had steeping grains. I never exceeded 170 degrees with the water (no notes in front of me) but the gravities were on point both times (starting and final). They were left for two weeks in the primary and two additional weeks in the secondary. Bottled and conditioned for three to four weeks. They are good but.... WAY Bitter.
Brewers Best extract w/grains

What else could be causing the off taste? Any ideas or suggestions would be helpful. I'm brewing the Midwest Simcoe IPA this weekend and would like to have a better result.
Thanks everybody!
