My last few batches of beer have been A European Black Lager and a Scottish Ale. While I know the Ale is not supposed to be thick I still think it could have some more mouthfeel to it. How do I thicken my beer a bit? The flavors are decent to wonderful on the front end of a sip. The problem is the back end. They have all seemed just to thin or watery. I know my FGs and OGs are right but it still seems to be even watery for all the styles of beer I have brewed. How do I thicken it up? Any ideas or help would be welcome.
Is it as simple as increasing the LME or DME? I didnt hink so but want to double check.
Shoudl I steep my grains for longer than directed? Typically I have been brewing with the Brewers Best Kits but since this consistant dissapointment I am considering just going to Recipes and making my own kits. OK enough rambling plase share your wisdom with me.
