The batch I have in ferm right now is a Cal. Common from an extract kit. The recipe called for First Gold hops at the end of the boil, but instead, they substituted Cascade, which I didn't know until after getting it home and starting the batch and then reading the little insert that explained the change. Any guesses as to how that may affect final taste/aroma as compared to having used First Gold?
Also --- the Saflager s-23 in the kit had a "use by" date of 11-13. I used it anyway and it seems to be working. Day 6 in ferm and still perking steadily.
Overall, not impressed with the kit company --- or LHBS. This will probably my last extract kit brew.
