i know there are a few post already about the dead guy kit. i just popped the cap on the first and it was kinda tasty. it could use a little more time to carb, its been two weeks. my basement has been a little warmer than the 62F that i fermented at.
This was the first time i did a dry extract brew and i used hop bags like the directions said. i left the bags loose on the pellets but once they hit the wort i immediately regretted using them.
I read one post before i brewed the kit that said theirs was really sweet and not very hoppy. i could care less if it tastes exactly like dead guy, so i nearly doubled the bittering hops and didn't use all the candy. Well mine is sweet. Will more bottle conditioning time mellow this or make it worse?
