OK, I am at wits end with an off flavor in my brew. I have been doing all grain for about 2 years now and can't find the source. The flavor was nonexistent in the beginning and is now here to stay. I don't know quite how to describe it but it a grainy musty funk that's not terrible but it drives me nuts.
I have filtered and boiled my water before use, used store bought water(a couple different kinds), changed up my yeast, switched grains, purchased hops from different farms, changed my cleaning and sanitation, bought new buckets for primary, and then switched to carboys. Nothing has worked.
Could it be the plastic from my cooler mash tun leaching some sort of flavor? Please help frustration is getting my brew mojo down....
