I just tried my first two AG brews, and they're both...disappointing. I'm fairly sure the first is because of a bad recipe that swmbo tried to invent, but the second was a hefe. I used 6lbs Pilsener and 6lbs wheat, with 1oz of hallertauer at 60 mins with a 90 minute boil. Mashed for an hour, but I don't quite recall the temp. I believe it was about 154 or 153. It has the clove taste I was expecting, but is much cloudier than anticipated and has a very watered down taste.
Any ideas? I'm not sure what went wrong.. I just brewed an extract hefe before these two and it was delicious, but these are both quite bland and watery.
