I'm an extract brewer who brews really good beer IMHO. Especially hoppy beer. But when it comes to malt complexity, I feel I lack bold flavor. Especially in a side by side comp to a clone.
I've always read that distilled water works best for extract brew. But does that include steeping grains???
I'm trying to pinpoint why the malt doesn't shine thru and actually seems weak at times. Any thoughts on water in stweping and mini mash best practices? ??
Thanks a ton!
