I have been brewing all grain for over a year now, write my own recipes in beersmith and have brewed a few lagers. I have made 4 attempts at a pilsner and all have had issues. My other lagers have been fine.
This time the pilsner has a significant diacetyl flavor after about 2 weeks at 36 deg.
I used german lager wlp830
2 weeks @ 54deg
3 days diacetyl rest at 72 ish(texas winter for ya)
2 weeks so far at 36
Tasted fine when transfering to keg, but now very noticable diacetyl flavor
Will this age out, or should I try bringing keg back up to room temp for a couple days?
It's almost fully carbonated already as well.
