Taste Notes
- Exactly as John Palmer said--Great beer and is exactly what I think a porter should taste like. At three weeks it hasa slightly smoky taste, very balanced malt/bitter, a hint of sweetness, mouthfeel is quite tight with not much finish but I think this will change as it conditions over the next month or so.Notes
- Mash water pH is 7.7 because of all the carbonates to offset the acidic, dark barley
- Mash combined pH was 4.7 so added 0.5 tsps citric acid and reduced to 4.40-4.5
- Temp was low at 64-65 instead of desired 66.7C
- Final runnings pH is 5.8 and OG is 1.025
- Pre-boil pH is 5.65 and OG is 1.045
