I harvested yeast from Saison Dupont and made a starter, and put it in the wort I made on Sunday.
(Pils, wheat, vienna, oat, EKG+90 minute boil.)
The airlock started moving on Tuesday, And when I opened the fermentation tank and checked it smelled like DMS. Today, I checked fermenter and found that the smell of DMS disappeared a lot, And it smells spicy and smoky, acrid, A little bit sour smell.
After pouring beer from the bottom of the fermentation tank, I drank it. PH is down (5.4->4.5) with some sour, young beer taste, and some citrus scent and a odd smell of fermenter.
I've never brewed Saison before, but I've had some Saison. I've never felt this way in Saison...
What's going on with my beer?
I don't know if this will get better, but I'm going to put Brett in the fermenter as my last hope.
Thank you for reading it.
The first picture is the picture of today's fermentation tank, and the bottom is yesterday.
