My last few batches I switched to using Campden tablets to dechlorinate my brewing water. I used the recommended treatment from "Home Brewer's Answer Book" of 1/2 oz tablet for 20 gallons. My beers all have this distinct off dominating flavor. Palmer recommends 1 tablet to treat 20 gallons. Campden tablets are typically only ~1/2 g. The difference between 1/2 oz and 1/2g is huge. Has anyone else used the treatment rate from HBAB and had success? For now I am brewing with bottled water until I get this straightened out. Please help.
