I’ve been getting a disappointing flavour shift from the sample I try on bottling day to the day I pop one open to drink.
I ferment in a bucket … temperature controlled chest freezer … bottle directly from the fermentor … each bottle gets 10ml of a simple corn sugar priming syrup … I leave the beer covered from light in my basement at ~18C (~65F) for a couple of weeks. It carbonates well, but the flavour seems to shift. Particularly noticing a significant loss in the hop flavours. Any thoughts on what might be happening here?
Any/all input is sincerely appreciated.
