An issue I've increasingly noticed since I started all grain brews about 6 months ago is that the beer I now make ends up changing color over time as it bottle conditions, maybe picking up 3SRM or so as it darkens over the course of a few months.
That part I can handle, but what I don't like is how the beautiful rich colour the beer starts at goes murky and very dull over time. A brilliant golden yellow turns to dingy faded khaki. A deep reddish amber will go football brown.
Anything in particular that might cause this that I can look out for in my process / ingredients?
