Please help save it. Here is the deal:
Brewed the dunkelweisse from Jamil's book and everything went great. Hit all of my intended numbers. Beer tasted great at all stages of sampling.
Force carbonated using the "set and forget" method. 15psi at 38 degrees. I guess I missed the "forget" part of this method and sampled pretty heavily along the way. Beer tasted fabulous.
Then all of a sudden it turned flavorless and watery. Also lost its good aroma.
The only thing that I introduced was I split my gas line to put in a T, and added another keg. (All working off a single regulator). Kept regualtor at 15psi.
Beer pours with 2" foam and keg does not leak. I also did not find any other leaks when spraying down with StarSan.
I have yet to sample the other keg. Will do that tonight.
What could cause a total loss of flavor and aroma? Could I be in the middle of a change due to contamination?
