2 main questions:
1. Has anybody ever tried tasting thier wort at different stages of the brewing process? Before the boil? After hop additions? After coolign the wort? (of course in a sanitary manner).
Im new to all grain BTW. I have a wierd situation... I tasted the wort before hop additions and it was sweet and promising. Then, after boiling the hops and cooling the wort down using a counterflow chiller, I noticed a harsh taste in the wort. 2. Can anyone think why this happened? If you dont have any idea about my problem, you can still discuss the usefulness of tasteing the wort before fermenting as an indication fo how the beer will turn out. Thanks a lot! :cross:
