What you mean "doesn't smell good"? lack of a specific aroma, orange, spoiled beer, what?

marchuk96, if this is a Blue Moon on your avatar, nice looking beer right there:rock:

Few comments: - I think you will realize that you need more orange peels to impart flavor. But just experiment to you taste. - I would drop the Irish moss completely. Blue Moon supposed to be hazy - On mashing efficiency, 100% efficiency on an all grain system happens when all starches are...

All my recipes are mashing at given temps for 1h.

I find interesting that you believe your time is worth more than anyone else here, you have produced no evidence to claim your opinion, and yet you question others data points. Until you give the forum evidence, your opinion is what it is, your opinion.

Here's a sample of two hop tea, one with 2oz/5gal and another with 4oz/5gal, boiled for 15min and through a coffee filter. I assume the alcohol content in beer doesn't extract any more colors as hops are added during boil of wort when no alcohol is present. I also believe that color will fade...

Unless you brew with both and compare, you'll never know which is better or worse. Yes, the Frontier doesn't say what orange it is from, but what really matters is the results, IMHO.

I tried both McCormicks and Frontier and ended up using Frontier for the last couple of batches. Recipes HERE. I'm back by the way, and for the posts that I still see here today, this recipe seems to be still very alive. Good to know, I may need some help to refresh my mind on how to brew again...

On my latest recipe, used 0.5 oz, which translates to about 14 grams

It should mellow somewhat with time, but ideally you should start low and increase amount over few batches. Also, how you use the coriander plays a major role on how much flavor it will impart. For instance, I used 0.375oz cracked in a ziplock bag and it turned good for my taste. 1oz crushed...
