I kegged a batch of IPA the Friday before last, about 13 days ago. The kegs have been at 40F under 10psi for the entire time. I Just pulled a pint and it has a fairly distinct flavor of what I understand is carbonic acid, a slightly metallic taste. My beers have always tasted great when bottled and tasted fine when I primed a keg in the past. But whenever I force carb, I get this flavor. This is my first time using the set it and forget it method and I am very disappointed to still have this flavor. I know this can be caused by over carbonation but it seems just right and the beer tastes great otherwise. Is there anything I can do to get rid of this flavor and avoid it in the future?
