Hey folks,
I’m looking for any guidance I can get. I just finished up a whole grain brew. 5 gallons - 10lbs of 2 row, 1 lb of carafoam and 1.5 lbs of flaked oats. I used about 3 oz of hops during the brew (mix of simcoe, citra and some home grown cascades) and then another 4 oz for dry hoping about 6 days into the fermentation. The colors looks great but the taste - while drinkable - is just weak. It’s not very hoppy and just taste like a lite pilsner (albeit a little maltier). This is the 3rd time I’ve done whole grain with similar results (i.e. weak tasting product). I never ran into this with extract brewing. What am I missing?
