Hello,
I brewed the Northern Brewer extract Bavarian Hefeweizen kit using Omega OYL021 at room temperature ~70 according to thermostat for 8 days. I then racked to the keg, let it cold crash for 12 hours, then force carbed via the shaking method. It is tasting quite sour with very little of the Banana/Clove flavors id come to expect. After doing some research I learned that this is most likely acetaldehyde due to the beer being to new or not cleaned up enough. SG of 1.050 and FG of 0.011. I took the keg out of the fridge at 10 psi to see if I could get the yeast to finish off those bad flavors. Does anyone know if this should fix the issue or is there anything else that can be done?
