I've brewed about 15 AG 5 gallon batches. All have been resonably good and "clean" tasting. I've also done about 10 5 gallon BIAB batches with equally good success.
My last brew was a Holiday spiced Ale. It was a bit heavy (1.074 SG) so I pitched with 2 packets of Safeale 05. The resulting beer was "OK", but had a slight yeasty homebrew taste. My lean/sterilization has never been a problem. Do you think I over pitched and would that create the taste? Or, did I get an infection somehow? I did hydrate the dry yeast.....
It did ferment normally from 1.074 to 1.018.
Thanks in advance
