HI Al
Just some of your insight please. Ive had two batches now out of my last 6 brews that smells and taste like diacetyl.
Last one is a pilsner ive fermented 16days, cold crash 1 1/2 day and gelatin fine anther day.
Does diacetyl go away with bottle conditioning, ive had the first batch, a pale ale sitting since end june but still gives a horrible taste of diacetyl.
what can be possible other causes other than taking beer too soon off the cake, not letting rest, getting trub into the bottling bucket,etc..
One thing i picked it up when checking FG during fermentation, thats why i let the last batch sit longer than usual 12-14 days.
OR, is it some other off taste that i dont know. best to describe it is a buttery, oily somewhat rubbery taste.
sorry i dont have a "Toxxyc" palate, so im maybe not very accurate in my tasting.
Is there any remedy for this beer, two batches of 40ish bottles cant go to waste, or should i just plug my nose and swallow, i drank two from each batch and im still alive so cant be infection.
