Do you add wheat flour in mash/boil to ensure haze?

You did not cover your boil.

Do you add Campden to remove chloramines? how much? [boiling removes only chlorine]
Do you add whirflock/isinglass/Irish moss/supermoss and how much?
Yeast nutrient? -how much?

All these things can remain after the boil, and can not only affect yeast performance, but also hop oil/aroma retention. Especially if too much of one thing or a combination thereof.

If your keg has a very slow leak may affect aroma too.
