I am still learning with mixed results but there is one thing I cant find an answer to
Among my brews, 2 of them have ended up the same and I don’t know why
Pilsner – yeast Saflager S-23
Duvel – yeast Belle Saison.
Both were ok at first and in fact the Duvel tasted rather similar to the original but over time the taste of both of them turned to that of a white beer.
(3 weeks fine, 4 weeks white beer)
It is still very nice but not what I was aiming for.
My only thought would be the flavour is the fruit esters being too strong and this could be caused by me pitching the yeast when the wort was way too warm (75-80F).
Is this it or is there something else that could cause this.
Thanks
