I just experienced my first home brew competition last weekend and had a great time.One of the main comments I got from the judges was there seemed to be diacytel in my beer.
I have looked online for answers about how to reduce/ eliminate the amount left in the finished beer but I am still a bit confused. I usually leave my beer in the primary for a couple weeks. I don't transfer to a secondary. I use Starsan to sanitize and do my best to practice good sanitation.
Now that I am aware of this, I think I have had this in several batches I have made.
Any ideas what I can do about this? Could it be that I use plastic fermenter buckets? I did find a few scratches in one of my buckets.
I currently have a Pumpkin ale that has been in the fermenter for 2 weeks. Anything I can do at this point to eliminate this problem in that batch?
