Hi:
I just finished my Porter beer. As I noticed, fermentation went well. However, the flavor of the beer is astringent. I forgot to measure the OG at the beginning but have this info now:
Final gravity: 1.020
Alcohol by Volumen: 2%
My questions are these:
Today 6th day since I put the wort into the glass carboy, what must be the right flavor of the beer?
Will the astringent flavor disappear?
If so, how long I have to wait for bottling?
If I use an aquarium heater and half of the carboy is immersed in water, the temperature of the wort is higher than the outside water or lower?
Thank you!
