I just racked my first brew (a porter) to a keg after a week in the primary and thought I would give it a taste to see how I was doing. I knew it would be flat and it wouldn't be much to the taste buds yet but I'm afraid something has gone wrong. I can taste the porter but there is no body and there seems to be a taste of vinegar. I believe I was very careful about sanitation and a friend says that I should just let it sit and it will be OK. Ive got it in the keg with 15 lbs of co2 on it sitting in about 50 degrees. I thought I would check on it in a couple of weeks and see what I have then.
Ideas?
I really am looking forward to starting on an IPA but I want to make sure Im doing this right.
Also Im looking for a recipe for something akin to Bells Two Hearted Ale. Any Ideas there?
I could really use all of your insight.
