I brewed my first batch a few weeks ago and tomorrow will be two weeks from when I bottled it. I'm a very impatient person and tried one last Thursday (9 days after bottling). Now I was expecting it to be very flat but when I poured it, there was a very large head - leading me to believe that it was carbonated enough. Upon tasting it, it tasted rather flat. This happened again yesterday. Is this normal in the conditioning process or did I do something wrong in the bottling process? I thought the beer tasted a little funny but since I'm new at this it's kind of hard to tell when the beer isn't fully carbonated like I'm used to. Any help is greatly appreciated.
