Hey guys,
I recently brewed an LME Vanilla Porter. I just tried it after one week of bottle conditioning. The first day I tried it from the fridge it was dry in the finish. The finish was also almost like a "pure alcohol" taste. My guess is that it's still green and needs more time to bottle condition? Or maybe it was something in my brewing process.
There were a few issues with this brew:
1. During the boil, I may have scorched some of the malts because I had a boilover.
2. I had an issue with using the siphon and ended up exposing it to oxygen longer than I anticipated.
I hope that the flavors will improve. Any feedback or suggestions would help!
