My first all grain batch after several extract batches. I chose a citra pale ale which is a favorite of mine. After a few videos of the all grain process I chose to do a mash out. The recipe didn't state I needed one but being new I was unsure. My mash cooler is 7 gallon and for a 5 gallon batch I couldn't add enough boiling water to get to 170. So I let it rest for 15 minutes and proceeded. All other steps were as usuall with my extract batches.
Anyway after fermentation and bottling I have a citra pale ale with an off flavor I cant pinpoint. Should I have skipped the mash out, or is there a better way to reach my mash out temp?
Thanks, Bob
