Hey guys,
I recently brewed a "Bavarian hefe" kit that I received as a gift. This beer is tart! Smells tart and tastes tart and sour. Here's some specs on my brew.
Biab 5 gallon batch
1.046 og
1.010 FG. Was fermenting for about 10 days. Fermented at the higher end at about 69-70 degrees. Temp was controlled using a fermentation fridge.
Protein rest at 120 for 15 mins. Then 60 min mash at 156. The reccomend temp was 152. Overshot a little.
Pitched full packet of yeast and it took off right away. Vigourous fermentation that finished up fairly quick.
Ingredients: 5 lbs. Domestic 2-Row barley, 4 lbs. White Wheat, 8 oz. Carapils, 2 oz. of tettnang hops. Safbrew WB 06 yeast.
It's been about 2 weeks since brew day and has been on gas in my kegerator for 4 days. Carbonation is fine but flavor is off.
Any idea what may have happened?
