Hi all, I just brewed up a happy blonde ale.
Thing is, i just pulled a gravity sample and it tasted quite salty.
I should add that the sample is only 3 days into fermenting, but I have used Lalbrew Voss Kviek and heard that fermenting is usually done quick.
I know it's nowhere near ready, but this flavour has me slightly worried that this batch is bad.
I brewed this batch a while ago also a d it was fantastic.
The only difference this time is I added a LOT more hops to it and also the yeast.
Just wondering if anybody else has has this?
I don't get into water chemistry and just use tap water and it has never failed me.
Thinking I'm probably not even going to bother this the bottling if this is doomed.
 
Just let it finish, then you'll know. I'd never recommend tap water unless it's from a well.
