I hope I'm at the right place for this question and you should know that I've perused the FAQ pages looking for an answer ...
I brewed my first batch of beer (a nice porter) a few weeks ago. Primary went well, secondary for a week to clarify and finish SG, batch sugaring for carbonation and bottling. The initial tasting (after primary) was interesting but bitter as gourd guts. After secondary things began to smooth out but still tasted a bit thin.
Been in the bottle for about 3 weeks now. Cracked one last night and the flavor is pretty good - but a bit "thin" tasting. The problem is it seems under-carbonated. What can I do for the next batch to help with that problem?
On my way to Nash Street Homebrew in Hillsborough, NC today to get ingredients for a pale ale.
