Taste Notes

Boil off with the 15gal was off - should be 20% from what I read vs. the 15% it was set to. Ended up adding another gallon of water at fermination for a total of 4.85 gallons. 4/14 - Secondary Fermenter; 4.59 gallons at 1.014 SG 4/21 - Starting the lagering process. Put temp up to 63 for two days, then down 2 degrees each day until 40. Lagering process will continue for 30 days. 5/6 - in keg at 40 5/12 - 1st taste - some "apple" flavor. Could be acetaldehyde - hope to have this resolved with age. Also, after discussions on homebrewtalk.com (http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f14/krolsh-tastes-sweet-still-young-328256/), I should perhaps have boiled the hops longer, paid more attencion to my efficiency, and kept in the primary for longer.
